Terms of Clearance: This information is approved through 6/96 under the following conditions: OMB is concerned that the time periods covered in the extant data differ from that covered in the survey. To address this issue, HRSA will add a question to the survey to determine whether the school's grant funding is comparable to previous years. HRSA will also need to review the comparability of the extant data over the years to establish its stability. The final report should highlight any variation found and qualify the results accordingly.
