Sending organizations are the schools and agencies abroad that send you students. Linking one lets you set it on internships and, when it has its own Minto account, lets both sides work from the same records. There are two ways in, depending on whether they already use Minto.

Connect

They already use Minto. You exchange codes and both organizations are linked to each other.

Create

They don’t use Minto yet. You create a placeholder to work with in the meantime.

Before you begin

  • Any role can connect an organization.
  • To connect, you need the organization’s connection code. They’ll find it under their own Settings > Company and send it to you.

Connect an organization that uses Minto

1

Open the organizations list

In the sidebar, select Organizations.
2

Start connecting

Select Connect.
3

Enter their code

Enter the code they gave you, then select Connect.
The organization appears under Sending Organizations and can be chosen when you create an internship.

Create a placeholder instead

Use this when the school hasn’t registered with Minto. It behaves like a real sending organization for planning purposes — you can link it to internships and replace it later when they do register.
1

Open the organizations list

In the sidebar, select Organizations.
2

Start creating

Select Create.
3

Name it

In Name, enter the school or agency’s name, then select Create.

Result

The organization appears in your list. Filter with the Sending Organizations tab if the list is long.
The Minto organizations list showing three connected sending organizations.

Connected sending organizations appear in the organizations list.

Troubleshooting

The code isn’t accepted. Minto tells you which of three things went wrong: “No organization found with this code.”, “Already connected to this organization.”, or “Cannot connect to your own organization.” The first usually means a mistyped character. A branch code works here too, not just the organization’s own code. You created a placeholder and now they’ve registered. Connect the real organization with their code, then move the internships across and remove the placeholder. Don’t leave both — you’ll end up recording the same partner twice.
