Guidance/Tips

To initiate a Continuation Review (CR)/Annual Administrative Review (AAR), or Final Review (FR) for closure, find your application under the Approved folder.  Open your application by clicking on the IRB # and select the "Continuation Review (CR) or Study Closure" menu option under the “Create” bar.  Then follow the prompts for completing the CR/AAR/Closure.  If you (or someone else on your research team) have already performed this step, but not submitted yet, you will find the incomplete CR/AAR/FR in your Draft folder.
