How can I send an email to the submitter?

Hello, 

I am trying to set up a notification that goes to people when they submit a form so that they know it has been submitted.  Is that possible to do through Jot Form?

Yes, it is indeed possible to do that, an email auto-responder is added to the form as soon as you add an email field to your form you could also check this guide that will help you to manually add an email auto-responder to your form: https://www.jotform.com/help/26-Setting-up-an-Autoresponder-Email 

If you have any question, let us know.
