Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 102 / Wednesday, May 28, 2014 / Notices
Average Burden per Response: 2
hours.
Frequency: On occasion.
Respondents are candidates applying
to the Air Force Academy, instructors of
candidates, and their high school
counselors. Information collection is
necessary in order to determine which
candidates have been nominated by
their Congress person or Senator; to
evaluate background and aptitude for
commissioned service; to provide a
candidate’s participation in athletic and
non-athletic extracurricular activities,
family and personal background, and
academic and school background data
by a candidate’s high school official.
This data also includes eligibility by
verification of age, U.S. citizenship, law
infractions, schooling beyond high
school, previous active duty tours, and
previous applications to service
academies. It is also necessary in order
to provide a candidate opportunity to
show through English, Math, or other
instructors that they can meet Air Force
academic performance. This data allows
the selection panel to evaluate the
‘‘whole person’’ concept. Without this
information it would be difficult to
accurately determine if an initial
applicant would be qualified to enter
into the candidate phase of the process.
It would also be difficult to accurately
determine a candidate’s leadership
abilities, physical stamina, and
academic abilities. Final USAF
Academy selections could not be made
if reviewing committees are not able to
determine if basic requirements have or
have not been met.
