NPSAS is a nationally representative study of how students and their families finance education beyond high school.

Since 1987, NPSAS has been fielded every 3 to 4 years, most recently during the 2015–16 academic year (NPSAS:16). This submission is for NPSAS:18–AC, which departs from the design of previous NPSAS studies in three respects: It is anticipated to include state-representative estimates for undergraduate students overall and in public 2-year and public 4-year institutions; it will provide financial aid estimates 2-years earlier than how the studies were previously scheduled; and E:\FR\FM\28SEN1.SGM 28SEN1 45282 Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 187 / Thursday, September 28, 2017 / Notices it will be the first NPSAS study without a student interview component.
