See the Applicant’s Interaction History

You can see which e-mails the applicant has been sent, when they were sent, when the applicant opened them, etc. These are e-mails coming form the graduate admissions office, not from our department. To see them click on the applicant’s bolded name in the top left and click on Lookup Record.
