Previously, this section stated:

  • Liaison, its subsidiaries, and affiliates may call and/or text me at any phone number I have provided or may provide in the future, including any wireless number.

    Invitation Codes Added to New Add Program Interface

This enhancement is automatically available for use by all CASs and participating programs using the Invitation Code feature and new Add Program interface. No action is required on the part of any association, school, or program. Contact your Account Manager for more information.

Applicants can now enter invitation codes in the new Add Program page interface. You can offer invitation codes to applicants who request a deadline extension. Invitation codes are specific to the organization; they can be used by applicants to apply for a closed program within that organization, or to add a closed program within that organization to their application and then apply to it.

Invitation codes must be requested from your Account Manager or Customer Solutions Manager, who will send them to you in a file. When an applicant requests a deadline extension, you can then send the applicant the invitation code to enter in their application. Review the Invitation Codes Reference Guide for more information.
