IRB Estimated Review Times
Below you can find estimated review times, to give you an idea of how long it usually takes the IRB to review submitted protocols.

Be aware that these time periods only serve as a general guidance; depending on the situation, they can be subject to change and there is no guarantee of accuracy for an individual project.
