The OITE collection system has been updated to use universal collection form templates with features that may be activated based on collection needs: number of recommendation letters, exceptional financial need statement, NIH campus location, etc. The collection system does allow for templates to have program specific labeling and directions to make sure the collection form is tailored to each training program, including but not limited to the following: Summer Internship Program, Postbaccalaureate Program, Graduate Partnerships SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\01NON1.SGM 01NON1 75008 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 210 / Wednesday, November 1, 2023 / Notices Program (GPP), and Undergraduate Scholarship Program (UGSP).

Sensitive data collected on the applicants: race, gender, ethnicity, relatives at NIH, and recruitment method, are made available only to OITE staff members or in aggregate form to select NIH offices and are not used by the admission committees for admission consideration. In addition, information to monitor trainee placement after departure from NIH is periodically collected. OMB approval is requested for 3 years.
