    Abstract: This is a request for a new information collection. On 
March 10, 2015, the White House issued a Student Aid Bill of Rights. 
Among the objectives identified was the creation of a centralized 
complaint system. The purpose of the Enterprise Complaint System is to 
meet the objective: ``Create a Responsive Student Feedback System: The 
Secretary of Education will create a new Web site by July 1, 2016, to 
give students and borrowers a simple and straightforward way to file 
complaints and provide feedback about federal student loan lenders, 
servicers, collections agencies, and institutions of higher education. 
Students and borrowers will be able to ensure that their complaints 
will be directed to the right party for timely resolution, and the 
Department of Education will be able to more quickly respond to issues 
and strengthen its efforts to protect the integrity of the student 
financial aid programs.'' The Department of Education has charged 
Federal Student Aid with the development and oversight of this new 
collection.

    Dated: December 4, 2015.

Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Office of 
the Chief Privacy Officer, Office of Management.
