Clearance Division, Privacy, Information
and Records Management Services,
Office of Management, publishes this
notice containing proposed information
collection requests at the beginning of
the Departmental review of the
information collection. The Department
of Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use

that written comments received in
response to this notice will be

Title of Collection: Student Assistance
General Provisions Non-Title IV
Revenue Requirements (90/10).
OMB Control Number: 1845–0096.
Type of Review: Extension.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 2,201.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 3,302.
Abstract: As provided by the Higher
Education Opportunity Act (Pub. L.
110–315), the Department of
Education’s regulations at 34 CFR
668.28(b) and 668.28(c) provide that a
proprietary institution must derive at
least 10% of its annual revenue from
sources other than Title IV, HEA funds,
identifies sanctions for failing to meet
the requirement, and otherwise
implement the statute by (1) specifying
a NPV formula used to establish the
revenue for institutional loans, (2)
providing an administratively easier
alternative to the NPV calculation, and
(3) describing more fully the non-Title
IV eligible programs from which
revenue may be counted for 90/10
purposes. The regulations require an
institution to disclose in a footnote to its
audited financial statements the
amounts of Federal and non-Federal
revenues, by category, that it used in
calculating its 90/10 ratio (see section
487(d) of the HEA). This request is for
extending approval of reporting
requirements contained in the
regulations related to the administrative
requirements of the non-Title IV
revenue requirement (90/10) program.
The information collection requirements
in the regulations are necessary to
determine eligibility to receive program
benefits and to prevent fraud and abuse
of program funds.
