OMB 1845-0171
This is a request for an OMB83 Simple Change to update this information collection following the transfer/incorporation of the majority of the Prison Education Program (PEP) application approved under 1845-0171 into the information collection 1845-0012, the electronic Application to Participate in Federal Student Financial Aid Programs (e-App). This request is to retain only the certifications for Postsecondary Institutions and Oversight Entities under this information collection. Due to the transfer of the majority of the PEP application to the e-App, there is a decrease in the total number of hours to complete the required certifications while updating the number of respondents to accurately reflect the number of institutions and the corresponding oversight entities that will complete the certification.
The latest form for Prison Education Program Application expires 2026-07-31 and is listed under ICR 202411-1845-001.
