Federal agencies and the public an early
opportunity to comment on information
collection requests. OMB may amend or
waive the requirement for public
consultation to the extent that public
participation in the approval process
would defeat the purpose of the

Federal law, or substantially interfere
with any agency’s ability to perform its
statutory obligations. The IC Clearance
Official, Regulatory Information
Management Services, Office of
Management, publishes that notice
containing proposed information
collection requests prior to submission
of these requests to OMB. Each
proposed information collection,
grouped by office, contains the
following: (1) Type of review requested,
e.g., new, revision, extension, existing
or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary

Abstract: Federal Student Aid, an
office of the U.S. Department of
Education, seeks renewal of the
registration system within the Student
Aid on the Web, an Internet Portal Web
site (hereafter ‘‘The Web Site’’). The
Web site makes the college application
process more efficient, faster, and
accurate by making it an automated,
electronic process that targets financial
aid and college applications. The Web
site uses some personal contact
information criteria to automatically fill
out the forms and surveys initiated by
the user. The Web site also provides a
database of demographic information
that helps Federal Student Aid target
the distribution of financial aid
materials to specific groups of students
and/or parents. For example, studies
have shown that providing student
financial assistance information to
middle school (or elementary school)
students and/or their parents
dramatically increases the likelihood
that those students will attend college.
The demographic information from the
Web site helps us to identify potential
customers in the middle school age
range. The FAFSA4caster Data Transfer
module has been added to the Web site
since its last approval. As with the
FAFSA Data Transfer module, data from
the student’s MyFSA profile prepopulates the FAFSA4caster—
FAFSA4caster is the U.S. Department of
Education’s financial aid estimator tool
that determines what type of financial
aid the student is eligible to receive and
provides an estimated award amount for
each. The FAFSA4caster data transfer
module uses current MyFSA profile
information and, therefore, does not
require the collection of additional data
items.
