# How can I delete essays in bulk?

**Steps**:

To delete multiple essays in bulk, follow these steps:

1. Select the Assignment that contains the essays you wish to delete
2. Select 1 or more essays using the checkboxes on the Essay Dashboard  
3. Click "Select all essays" if you would like to select all essays that match your filters  
4. Click **Delete Submissions** to delete the selected essays.

||| You will be asked to confirm your decision to delete as this is a non-recoverable action. You will have to reimport essays deleted accidentally and this may require students to resubmit them in the LMS platform, depending on the platform and submission status within it.
