Budget (OMB) provide interested 

Federal agencies and the public an early 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection requests. OMB may amend or 

waive the requirement for public 

consultation to the extent that public 

participation in the approval process 

would defeat the purpose of the 

information collection, violate State or 

Federal law, or substantially interfere 

with any agency’s ability to perform its 

statutory obligations. The IC Clearance 

Official, Regulatory Information 

Management Services, Office of 

Management, publishes that notice 

containing proposed information 

collection requests prior to submission 

of these requests to OMB. Each 

proposed information collection, 

grouped by office, contains the 

following: (1) Type of review requested, 

e.g., new, revision, extension, existing 

or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary 

of the collection; (4) Description of the 

need for, and proposed use of, the 

information; (5) Respondents and 

frequency of collection; and (6) 

Reporting and/or Recordkeeping 

burden. OMB invites public comment.

Abstract: Federal Student Aid, an 

office of the U.S. Department of 

Education, seeks renewal of the 

registration system within the Student 

Aid on the Web, an Internet Portal Web 

site (hereafter ‘‘The Web Site’’). The 

Web site makes the college application 

process more efficient, faster, and 

accurate by making it an automated, 

electronic process that targets financial 

aid and college applications. The Web 

site uses some personal contact 

information criteria to automatically fill 

out the forms and surveys initiated by 

the user. The Web site also provides a 

database of demographic information 

that helps Federal Student Aid target 

the distribution of financial aid 

materials to specific groups of students 

and/or parents. For example, studies 

have shown that providing student 

financial assistance information to 

middle school (or elementary school) 

students and/or their parents 

dramatically increases the likelihood 

that those students will attend college. 

The demographic information from the 

Web site helps us to identify potential 

customers in the middle school age 

range. The FAFSA4caster Data Transfer 

module has been added to the Web site 

since its last approval. As with the 

FAFSA Data Transfer module, data from 

the student’s MyFSA profile prepopulates the FAFSA4caster— 

FAFSA4caster is the U.S. Department of 

Education’s financial aid estimator tool 

that determines what type of financial 

aid the student is eligible to receive and 

provides an estimated award amount for 

each. The FAFSA4caster data transfer 

module uses current MyFSA profile 

information and, therefore, does not 

require the collection of additional data 

items.
