Set a custom application deadline
What is a custom deadline?
A custom deadline is a specific deadline assigned to a single application. This deadline can be set for an application in just a few clicks from the manager's view of an application.
Should I use custom deadlines?
This feature is helpful for programs that wish to give select applicants additional time to complete their applications after an application round has finished. When inviting applicants to complete an application, a custom deadline can be assigned, even if the form's round has passed. For information on invite-only applications, see our guide: Invitation-only applications.
Assign a custom application deadline
- In the Manage workspace, go to Applications
- Click the name or ID number of the desired application
- Hit Set next to the 'Custom application deadline' heading
- Click into the field that appears to choose your new deadline using the calendar widget
Tip: click the clock icon at the bottom of the calendar to select the deadline time.
You can edit the custom application deadline by clicking Edit after a date and time have been assigned.
