Institutional Review Board

• Overview: Institutional Review Board (IRB) Review Considerations
  The IRB reviews proposals on a monthly basis. Proposals are collected and review begins on the first of each month. If it is determined that more information is needed, the Primary Investigator will be contacted by email. Upon receipt of the requested information, the proposal will be re-reviewed and a decision will be made by the fifteenth of that month (or the next business day if the fifteenth falls on a day that the college is closed). In the event that the requested information is not received before the fifteenth of the month, that IRB proposal will be rolled over into the next month.
