You can use ZoomGrants to send custom emails to groups of applicants and their collaborators and to your reviewers.<\/div>\n

How It Works<\/h2>\n
\n

As an admin, you can create emails to send to applicants (and their collaborators on each application, as applicable) and to your reviewers. Emails to applicants can be based on message templates<\/a> created in Program Setup, or they can be written from scratch each time a message is to be sent. These messages sent to applicants can contain merge fields<\/a> to populate data from each application.<\/p>\n

Reports detailing the messages sent to applicants are stored in a Group Messages Sent <\/strong>report\u00a0housed on the admin Program Dashboard<\/strong>.\u00a0Click a message date link to open a popup that displays the message text, the recipients, and a link to the attachment (if included).<\/p>\n

When a customized email isn\u2019t needed, administrators can also use quick-send buttons to send generic reminders to all a<\/strong>pplicants<\/strong> with overdue Reports (via the Report<\/a> tab) or to r<\/strong>eviewers<\/strong> who haven\u2019t yet completed their review (via the Scoring Report<\/a>).<\/p>\n
