Abstract:
As a condition for receiving a TEACH Grant, a student must sign an Agreement to Serve or Repay (Agreement). The proposed regulations would expand and update the Agreement with revised definitions, requirements, and explanations of the program and participant conditions. We do not believe that the changes will affect the number of respondents or increase the completion time of the currently approved form. A new Agreement must be signed for each award year during which a student wishes to receive a TEACH Grant. By signing the Agreement, a TEACH Grant recipient agrees to meet the teaching service obligation and other terms and conditions of the TEACH Grant Program that are described in the Agreement. In accordance with these terms and conditions, if a TEACH Grant recipient does not fulfill the required teaching service obligation or otherwise fails to meet the requirements of the TEACH Grant Program, any TEACH Grant funds the individual received will be converted to a Direct Unsubsidized Loan that the grant recipient must repay in full, with interest. The Agreement also explains the repayment terms and conditions that will apply if a TEACH Grant is converted to a Direct Unsubsidized Loan. The only change is in the language of the Agreement and the changes will not affect the burden estimate.
