Because you will complete this study as a student, the UCLA Institutional Review Board (IRB) is not the IRB of record for the study. UCLA would be considered a "site." Your study should be reviewed first by your academic institution IRB.
- If your academic institution IRB determines that the study is "research" and approves the research, then you will need to submit an Administrative Review form to the UCLA IRB. The UCLA IRB will need to determine if UCLA is "engaged" in this research.
- If your academic institution IRB determines that the study is "not research," then it is recommended that you complete this online form in its entirety to ensure that you receive a UCLA IRB determination.
