Request for Convened (Full) Committee (more than minimal risk) applications should be submitted to ORSCA at least 30 days prior to the IRB meeting (see the IRB Meeting Schedule).

Exempt and Expedited applications are reviewed on an ongoing basis.

IMPORTANT: Students planning to conduct research for a thesis or culminating project involving human subjects, it is highly recommended to submit their applications no later than week 4 of the semester prior to anticipated graduation. For example, a student intending to graduate during Spring Semester 2020 would submit the application by week 4 of Fall Semester 2019.
