Letter Ledger
Recommendation-letter requests: a request link with your policy and FERPA release, encrypted packets, a deadline dashboard.
The problem
Letter requests arrive by email with missing deadlines and no reminder of who the student is. Deadlines slip when everything lives in an inbox, and each letter starts from a blank page.
What it does
Organizes recommendation letter requests for professors. You send students a request link that spells out your rules: how much notice you need, how many programs, a minimum grade and required documents. Students fill in their programs, deadlines and courses, sign a FERPA records release, and email you a single encrypted file. Your dashboard sorts letters by deadline, flags overdue ones, exports calendar reminders, drafts status emails and builds a fact outline for each letter from your notes.
What you get
- A personal request link that collects what you need, including the student's consent
- A deadline dashboard with reminders
- Notes on each student, kept during the term
- Reuse one letter across several programs
Good to know
A typed name does not prove who signed, and your data lives in one browser until you back it up.
