the public’s reporting burden. It also

processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;

Title of Collection: William D. Ford
Federal Direct Loan (Direct Loan)
Program Federal Direct PLUS Loan
Master Promissory Note and Endorser
Addendum.
OMB Control Number: 1845–0068.
Type of Review: Revision of an
existing collection of information.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 1,087,407.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 343,704.
Abstract: The Federal Direct PLUS
Loan Master Promissory Note (Direct
PLUS Loan MPN) serves as the means
by which an individual applies for and
agrees to repay a Federal Direct PLUS
Loan. The Direct PLUS Loan MPN also
informs the borrower of the terms and
conditions of Direct PLUS Loan and
includes a statement of borrower’s rights
and responsibilities. A Direct PLUS
Loan borrower must not have an adverse
credit history. If an applicant for a
Direct PLUS Loan is determined to have
an adverse credit history, the applicant
may qualify for a Direct PLUS Loan by
obtaining an endorser who does not
have an adverse credit history. The
Endorser Addendum serves as the
means by which an endorser agrees to
repay the Direct PLUS Loan if the
borrower does not repay it. This
revision incorporates changes to
information based on statutory and
regulatory changes as well as expanding
repayment plan information, deleting
outdated information and clarifying
information through updated charts and
language.

Type of Review: A new information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 442.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 274.
Abstract: OMB clearance is requested
for a comprehensive randomized control
trial study of the Retired Mentors for
New Teachers program for probationary
teachers developed by the Aurora Public
School District (APS), in Aurora
Colorado. The program uses recently
retired master teachers to provide oneon-one mentoring to probationary
teachers in high poverty elementary
schools. The program was developed by
APS over a three year period from 2008–
2011. The district has partnered with
REL Central to conduct a Randomized
Control Trial (RCT) study of the
program because it desires to
understand program impacts on teacher
retention, performance, and teacher
evaluations. The district has committed
resources to pay for the intervention as
well as for teachers to participate in any
data gathering activities, such as surveys
or focus groups. This OMB clearance
request is to collect data from 100
teachers and 8 teacher mentors. It does
not include data collection from
students.
