Administration (HRSA) publishes periodic summaries of proposed projects 
being developed for submission to the Office of Management and Budget 
under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. To request more information 
on the proposed project or to obtain a copy of the data collection 
plans and draft instruments, call the HRSA Reports Clearance Officer on

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of 
the Agency, including whether the information shall have practical 
utility; (b) the accuracy of the Agency's estimate of the burden of the

utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways

Proposed Project: The Nurse Faculty Loan Program (NFLP): Program 
Specific Data Form (NEW)

    The Nurse Faculty Loan Program (NFLP) is authorized under Title 
VIII of the Public Health Service Act, Section 846A, as amended by the 
Nurse Reinvestment Act, Public Law 107-205 to increase the number of 
qualified nurse faculty. The HHS, acting through HRSA, may enter into 
an agreement with schools of nursing and make an award to establish and 
operate a distinct NFLP loan fund. The NFLP loan fund is used by the 
applicant School of Nursing to make loans to eligible students pursuing 
an advanced nursing degree program that will prepare the student to 
become qualified as a nursing faculty.
    The NFLP Program Specific Data Form will capture program-related 
information provided by the applicant. NFLP applicants will complete 
and submit the Program Specific Data Form as an electronic attachment 
with the required application materials. The form will provide the 
Federal Government with specific data from the applicant to specify: 
(1) The amount of the Federal funds requested by the applicant, (2) the 
expected contribution from the applicant, (3) the student enrollment 
and graduation data based on current and prospective NFLP loan 
recipients, (4) the graduate nursing education programs supported under 
NFLP, (5) the program accreditation status, (6) the current tuition and 
fee information for graduate nursing education programs, and (7) the 
projected NFLP loan fund balance that may be considered as part of the 
award determination. The data provided in the form are essential for 
the formula-based criteria used to determine the award amount to the 
applicant schools. The new Program Specific Data Form will facilitate 
the current effort to develop an automated data collection capability 
for the NFLP. The electronic data collection capability will streamline 
the application submission process, enable an efficient award 
determination process, and serve as a data repository to facilitate 
reporting on the use of funds and analysis of program outcomes. 
Additionally, the data will be used to ensure programmatic compliance 
with the legislative authority and program guidance, to report program 
accomplishments to policy makers and Congress, and to formulate and 
justify the appropriation to the Office of Management and Budget and 
Congress.
    The estimate of burden for this form is as follows:
