Additional Information & Tips

  • For full committee reviews, the Pre-review Summary is typically sent about 5 business days prior to the meeting (the week before the meeting date)
  • Ensure your response coincides with the changes that are made in protocol!
  • It is recommended to send your response as early as possible, so that administrative staff can help look over your revisions and responses.

Important Reminders

For full committee reviews, submit your response by the due date stated in the email - This is to allow reviewers adequate time to look over your response. Late responses may potentially affect the outcome of the committee’s decision on your submission.
