SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) provide interested Federal agencies and the public an
early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal
law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform
its statutory obligations. The Acting Director of the Information
Resources Group publishes this notice containing proposed information
collection requests prior to submission of these requests to OMB. Each
proposed information collection, grouped by office, contains the
following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., new, revision,
extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of the
collection; (4) Description of the need for, and proposed use of, the
information; (5) Respondents and frequency of collection; and (6)
Reporting and/or Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites public comment at
the address specified above. Copies of the requests are

postsecondary institutions to complete and submit this application as a
condition of eligibility for any of the Title IV student financial
assistance programs and for the other postsecondary programs authorized
by the HEA. An institution must submit the form (1) initially when it
first seeks to become eligible for the Title IV programs, (2) every
four years after initial certification, (3) when it changes ownership,
merges, or changes from a ``profit'' to a ``non-profit'' institution,
and (4) to be reinstated to participate in the Title IV programs.
