At Green Valley College Foundation Inc., the Research Office uses the RIN system to track individual research titles and projects. All research groups are required to apply for and are assigned a unique Research Identification Number, ensuring organized monitoring and proper documentation of all research activities.

Welcome to the GVCFI Online Ethical Clearance Application Form.

This form is intended for student and faculty researchers applying for ethical approval for their research studies. Please ensure that your proposal demonstrates responsible research practices, especially when involving human participants. Before proceeding, make sure you have completed your Research Ethical Considerations section (found in Chapter 3 or the Methodology section-IMRaD) and have prepared your research instrument with appropriate ethical safeguards. All submissions will be reviewed by the GVCFI Institutional Research Ethics Board (Research Office).

All student-researchers are required to upload the soft copy of their research manuscript in MS Word format. Please note that only the main content of the manuscript should be submitted—excluding the preliminaries (e.g., title page, acknowledgments, table of contents) and appendices.

Ensure that your approval sheets are completely signed before submission.

Upon submission of the hardbound copies and approval by the Research Office, student-researchers will be required to accomplish a completion form. The Certificate of Research Completion will be issued only after these requirements are fully met.
