DATES: Comments on this ICR should be
received no later than December 5,
2019.

including the ICR Title, to the desk
officer for HRSA, either by email to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
Scholarships for Disadvantaged
Students Program OMB No. 0915–
0149—Revision.
Abstract: HRSA seeks to update the
Scholarships for Disadvantaged
Students (SDS) program-specific form to
collect 3 years of student data instead of
1 year of student data from SDS program
applicants. This will assist the agency in
making funding decisions for SDS
program awards. The form will reflect
programmatic changes to the SDS
program, made after consideration of the
comments received in response to the
request for public comment, published
at 84 FR 23571, which will be finalized
in the forthcoming SDS Policy Change
Federal Register Notice.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: The purpose of the SDS

Program is to make grant awards to
eligible schools to provide scholarships
to full-time, financially needy students
from disadvantaged backgrounds
enrolled in health professions programs.
To qualify for participation in the SDS
program, a school must be carrying out
a program for recruiting and retaining
students from disadvantaged
backgrounds, including students who
are members of racial and ethnic
minority groups (section 737(d)(1)(B) of
the Public Health Service (PHS) Act). To
meet this requirement, a school must
show that at least 20 percent of the
school’s full-time enrolled students and
graduates are from a disadvantaged
background. HRSA previously required
schools to demonstrate this percentage
by submitting 1 year of data; a school
must now provide this data for the most
recent 3 year period.1 The proposed
revisions to the SDS program-specific
form will require applicants to provide
the percentage of full-time enrolled
students and graduates from a
disadvantaged background over a 3-year
period, consistent with this policy
change.
An additional change to the SDS
program is that a 3 year average, instead
of a 1 year average, will be used to
calculate priority points, which are
provided to eligible schools based on
the proportion of graduating students
going into primary care, the proportion
of underrepresented minority students,
and the proportion of graduates working
in medically underserved communities
(section 737(c) of the PHS Act). The
proposed revisions to the SDS programspecific form will require applicants to
provide a 3 year average for these
percentages, consistent with this policy
change, as opposed to the 1 year of data
previously required.
Likely Respondents: Institutions that
apply for SDS program awards.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
1 The SDS program will allow an exception for
newly established schools; that is, schools that have
not been in existence long enough to have three
years of enrollment and graduation data. However,
these schools will be required to demonstrate that
at least 20 percent of the school’s full-time students
are students from disadvantaged backgrounds, with
at least two years of student enrollment, and at least
one year of graduation data.
