Abstract:
This is a request for an OMB83 Change request to transfer/incorporate into the information collection 1845-0012, the Prison Education Program (PEP) application, 1845-0171. The PEP application is currently a separate application which is filed as an attachment to the electronic Application to Participate in Federal Student Financial Aid Programs. Due to the slight increase in burden associated with this requested merging of two separately approved information collections we are providing this updated supporting statement along with the standard Simple Change documents as requested. No other change is being requested to the currently approved form.

Short Statement:
This update is for the 83C request to merge the PEP application into the e-App. The above illustrates the burden and response information that will merge from 1845-0171 into 1845-0012. We estimate 400 total institutions utilizing the PEP questions on the e-App, a decrease of 200 institutions from the 1845-0171 collection. We also are re-estimating an 8 burden hours per response for a total of 3,200 additional hours to the e-App. This represents a decrease of 2 hours per institution to file the PEP application from the 1845-0171 collection.
