Reinstatement with change of a previously approved collection   No

Approved without change 10/12/1993

Approved under the condition, to which ED has agreed per 10/12/93 phon call, that the definition of the term "group underrepresented in graduate education" refer to "ethnic and minority groups" rather than "ethnics and minorities". ED has indicated that this term will be revised for next year's performance report, to be consistent with the definition developed in final regulations that will be issued prior to that time. In redesigning the form, ED shall consider two additional changes to improve the usefulness of the data: -- Set a higher performance standard for "good academic standing," whi is generally defined by universities as a 2.0 grade-point average. Th standard appears too low to be a useful measure of student performance in a graduate-school preparation program. -- Reconsider the tracking of students who were dismissed or withdrew from the school for academic reasons. Such students are not likely candidates for graduate-school education. Simple retention in college may be a low indicator of program performance.
