Title: 35% Exemption Request From 

85/15 Reporting Requirement, VA Form 

22–10216. 

OMB Control Number: 2900–0896. 

Type of Review: Revision of a 

currently approved collection. 

Abstract: As part of the benefits 

authorization process, Code of Federal 

Regulations (CFR) 38 CFR 21.4201 

places restrictions on enrollment based 

on the percentage of students receiving 

financial support in any approved 

program. Except as otherwise provided 

by regulation, VA shall not approve an 

enrollment in any course for an eligible 

Veteran, not already enrolled, for any 

period during which more than 85 

percent of the students enrolled in the 

course are having all or part of their 

tuition, fees or other charges paid for 

them by the educational institution or 

by VA under title 38, U.S.C., or under 

title 10, U.S.C. This is known as the 85/ 

15 Rule and is applicable to Institutions 

of Higher Learning (IHLs) and NonCollege Degree postsecondary schools. 

The requirements apply to all courses, 

not otherwise exempt, or waived, 

offered by all educational institutions, 

regardless of whether the institution is 

degree-granting, proprietary profit, 

proprietary nonprofit, eleemosynary, 

public and/or tax-supported. Schools 

are required to submit information 

necessary to determine if their programs 

of training are approved for the payment 

of VA educational assistance. This 

specified information is submitted 

either to VA or to the State Approving 

Agency (SAA) having jurisdiction over 

that school. This regulation includes a 

provision that permits an exemption 

from routine reporting of this data for 

schools that assert that the number of 

VA beneficiary students in all programs 

approved for GI Bill never exceeds 35% 

of the total enrollment at the 

educational institution. If approved, 

such schools must still monitor and 

collect the data, but are exempt from 

routinely reporting it to VA. The VA 

uses data from this information 

collection to determine that non-receipt 

of the routine reporting of 85/15 data is 

authorized by certain schools. Schools 

with an approved exemption are 

required to provide the complete 85/15 

data during regular, periodic 

compliance survey reviews by VA to 

ensure no more than 85% of students in 

any approved program are students in 

receipt of financial support from the 

educational institution or by VA under 

title 38, U.S.C., or under title 10, U.S.C. 

Without this information, VA might pay 

benefits in error. 

Affected Public: Educational 

Institutions. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 1,411 

hours. 

Estimated Average Burden per 

Respondent: 30 minutes. 

Frequency of Response: Annually. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

2,822. 

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.
