18:06 May 04, 2016
Jkt 238001
Education Loans is a section of the
regulations governing private education
loans offered at covered institutions.
These regulations assure the Secretary
that the integrity of the program is
protected from fraud and misuse of
program funds and places requirements
on institutions and lenders to ensure
that borrowers receive additional
disclosures about Title IV, HEA program
assistance prior to obtaining a private
education loan. The Department is
submitting the unchanged Private
Education Loan Applicant SelfCertification for OMB’s continued
approval. While information about the
applicant’s cost of attendance and
estimated financial assistance must be
provided to the student, if available, the
student will provide the data to the
private loan lender who must collect
and maintain the self-certification form
prior to disbursement of a Private
Education Loan. The Department will
not receive the Private Education Loan
Applicant Self-Certification form and
therefore will not be collecting and
maintaining the form or its data.

Abstract: Section 3505(a)(2) of the
PRA of 1995 provides the OMB Director
authority to approve the streamlined
clearance process proposed in this

collection streamlines the clearance
process for all discretionary grant
information collections which do not fit
the generic application process. The
streamlined clearance process continues
to reduce the clearance time for the U.S.
Department of Education’s (ED’s)
discretionary grant information
collections by 60 days. This clearance
would allow ED to provide better
customer service to grant applicants and
help meet ED’s goal for timely awards
of discretionary grants.
