### Overview
Currently, Coordinators can assign applications one by one (see #889 -- useful but can also lead to inefficiencies and wasted manual work time. A bulk assignment feature will allow multiple applications to be selected and assigned in a single action, improving workflow efficiency.

**User Story**
As a Coordinator, I want to assign multiple applications at once, so that I can process applications faster without repetitive manual work.

**High-Level Approach**
Enable bulk selection checkboxes for multiple applications.
Add a “Bulk Assign” button that allows assignment to a selected Coordinator.
Ensure real-time updates so changes reflect immediately in the dashboard.

**Acceptance Criteria**
- [ ] Coordinators can select multiple applications using checkboxes.
- [ ] Clicking “Bulk Assign” opens a modal or dropdown with available Coordinators.
- [ ] Selecting a Coordinator assigns all selected applications at once.
- [ ] Assignments update in real-time without requiring a page refresh.

### Resources/Instructions
**Considerations**
Permissions: Ensure only authorized users can bulk-assign cases.
Notifications: Should Coordinators receive a confirmation message for bulk assignments?

**Design**
Wireframes for bulk selection UI (checkboxes & “Bulk Assign” button). 1pt 4-6 hrs
Define error handling flow (e.g., if an assignment fails for some applications). 1 pt 4-6 hrs

**Engineering**
Implement bulk assignment selection UI (checkboxes, bulk action button) 2 pt 7-12 hrs
Backend support for bulk assignment logic (processing multiple assignments in one request) 2 pt 7-12 hrs
Ensure real-time updates for bulk assignments (dashboard updates without reload) 1 pt 4-6 hrs
