Needs and Uses: The information collection requirement is necessary
to determine the medical qualification of applicants to the five
Service academies, the Four Year Reserve Officer Training Corps
Scholarship Program, Uniformed Services University of the Health
Sciences, and the Army, Navy, and Air Force Scholarship Program. The
collection of medical history of each candidate is used to determine if
applicants meet medical standards outlined in Department of Defense
Directive 6130.3, Physical Standards for Appointment, Enlistment and
Induction.
Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
Annual Burden Hours: 19,500.
Number of Respondents: 19,500.
Responses Per Respondent: 1.
Average Burden Per Response: 60 Minutes.
Frequency: On occasion.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Summary of Information Collection
Respondents are individuals who are interested in applying to
attend one of the five Service academies, the Four year Reserve Officer
Training Corps Scholarship Program, Uniformed Services University of
the Health Sciences or Army, Navy, and Air Force Scholarship Programs.
The completed form(s) is processed through medical reviewers
representing their respective services to determine a medical
qualification status. Associated forms may or may not be required
depending on the medical information contained in the medical
examination. If the medical examination and necessary associated forms
are not accomplished, individuals reviewing the medical qualification
status cannot be readily assured of the medical qualifications of the
individual. Without this process the individual applying to any of
these programs could not have the medical qualification determination
essential to ensure compliance with the physical standards established
for the respective military service program.
