SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with 
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing 
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact 
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's 
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in 
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed 
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The 
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to 
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be 
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden 
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility, 
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the 
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, 
including through the use of information technology. Please note that 
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered 
public records.
    Title of Collection: Teacher Education Assistance for College and 
Higher Education Grant Program (TEACH Grant Program) Agreement to 
Serve.
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0083.
    Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Teacher Education Assistance for 
College and Higher Education Grant Program (TEACH Grant Program) 
Agreement to Serve.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 34,116.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 17,058.
    Abstract: As a condition for receiving a TEACH Grant, a student 
must sign an Agreement to Serve. A new Agreement to Serve must be 
signed for each award year during which a student wishes to receive a 
TEACH Grant. By signing the Agreement to Serve, a TEACH Grant recipient 
agrees to meet the teaching service obligation and other terms and 
conditions of the TEACH Grant Program that are described in the 
Agreement to Service. In accordance with these terms and conditions, if 
a TEACH Grant recipient does not fulfill the required teaching service 
obligation or otherwise fails to meet the requirements of the TEACH 
Grant Program, any TEACH Grant funds the individual received will be 
converted to a Direct Unsubsidized Loan that the grant recipient must 
repay in full, with interest. The Agreement to Serve also explains the 
repayment terms and conditions that will apply if a TEACH Grant is 
converted to a Direct Unsubsidized Loan.
