How long does IRB approval take?

It depends on your institution and your review category. Exempt and expedited reviews are typically much faster than full board review, which may only meet monthly. Ask your IRB office for current timelines and build the answer into your dissertation timeline rather than hoping.

This comes up on IRB Application Support, where it is answered in the context of the work itself.
