How long does the CUREB need to review a submission?

Initial feedback from the CUREB varies depending on the level of ethics review and the response time of the applicant:

• Minimal risk reviews, course clearances, and administrative reviews take 2 to 3 weeks on average.
• Full CUREB reviews take 4 to 6 weeks.

During busy periods, the review time may be longer. If you have not heard from us during this time, we encourage you to follow up with a Research Ethics and Compliance Coordinator.
