The U.S. Department of Education is
requesting a new Annual Performance Report (APR) for grants under
the Veterans Upward Bound (VUB) Program. The Department is
requesting a new APR because of the implementation of the Higher
Education Opportunity Act revisions to the Higher Education Act of
1965, as amended, the authorizing statute for the programs. The
APRs are used to evaluate the performance of grantees prior to
awarding continuation funding and to assess a grantee's prior
experience at the end of each budget period.
This is a new collection; thus
all burden is considered new.
