Under the disclosure requirements, an institution must provide current and prospective students with information about each of its programs that prepares students for gainful employment in a recognized occupation (GE programs) using a disclosure template provided by the Secretary. The Secretary must specify the information to be included on the disclosure template in a notice published in the Federal Register. The Department is requesting revision of the burden currently calculated for 1845-0107. This request revises the current information collection for the disclosure template to reflect the updated disclosure requirements that institutions must provide current and prospective students. The Secretary may, by notice in the Federal Register, change the disclosure items required. Not all items listed under 34 CFR 668.412 are included in the revised disclosure template.
This is a revision of the current collection package. The Department is updating the current burden assigned to 1845-0107. This adjustment is due, in part, to revising the elements on the disclosure template required to be provided to prospective and current students. We are requesting an increase for this information collection to 36,291,450 respondents, 72,794,823 responses, and 16,217,015 hours. The updated burden increases the number of responses by +44,850,412 and the number of burden hours +13,098,855.
