and Records Management Services,
Office of Management, publishes this
notice containing proposed information

the Departmental review of the
information collection. The Department
of Education is especially interested in

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

Type of Review: Revision.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 13,975.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: Data from BPS are used to
help researchers and policymakers
better understand how financial aid
influences persistence and completion,
what percentages of students complete
various degree programs, what early
employment and wage outcomes are for
certificate and degree attainers, and why
students leave school. This request is to
conduct the BPS:12/14 first follow-up
field test, including panel maintenance,
student interviews and reinterviews,
and administrative record matching.
Following the field test study in 2013,
NCES will submit a request for
clearance of the BPS:12/14 full scale
data collection to be conducted in
spring 2014. Because only minimal
changes are expected after the field test,
NCES is requesting a waiver of the 60day Federal Register Notice for the fullscale collection clearance submission.
