Instructions: Answer the questions to self-assess whether your human subjects research may qualify for exemption.

• If this assessment indicates your study is eligible for exemption, prepare an Exempt Application.
• If this assessment indicates your study is not eligible for exemption, prepare an Initial Review Application.

Verification of exemption from Research Compliance Services (RCS) is required. You may not begin human subject research activities until you receive documentation of an exempt determination from RCS.
