  • An in-app notification immediately

  • An email notification within 5 minutes (this slight delay allows similar updates to be grouped together)

Notes from Your Advisor: When your advisor creates a new note that's visible to you, you'll receive:

  • An in-app notification immediately

  • An email notification within 5 minutes

Edited Notes: If your advisor edits an existing note, you won't receive a new notification—the original note is simply updated.
