Exempt Review
There are no deadlines, except for students planning to graduate or students taking two-semester research courses (see Student Project Timelines). We recommend that you apply at least 4 weeks prior to the start of your project if you are not a student subject to special deadlines.
Always submit as early as possible, especially during our high volume times, which are late fall into mid-spring.
Decisions are communicated roughly one week after the submission of a complete package during low volume times, unless staff members are out of the office. During the weeks of June 20 and 27 and July 4, review might be slightly delayed, due to staff vacation time.
