# Assessment Round Setup

Understand the steps to create an Assessment Round in Tahua.

An Assessment Round is when you create an assessment for more than one Application at the same time. This enables you to assess all Applicants against the same criteria. Applications must be submitted before you can assess them. Applications with status “Started” cannot be added to an Assessment Round.
