SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Information Collection Request Title: Nurse Corps Scholarship 
Program (NCSP) OMB No. 0915-0301--Revision.
    Abstract: The NCSP, administered by HRSA's Bureau of Health 
Workforce, provides scholarships to nursing students in exchange for a 
minimum 2-year full-time service commitment (or part-time equivalent), 
at an eligible health care facility with a critical shortage of nurses 
(i.e., a Critical Shortage Facility (CSF)). The scholarship consists of 
payment of tuition, fees, other reasonable educational costs, and a 
monthly support stipend. Program recipients are required to fulfill 
NCSP service commitments at CSFs, which are located in the 50 States, 
the District of Columbia, Guam, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the 
Northern Mariana Islands, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa, the 
Federated States of Micronesia, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, 
and the Republic of Palau.
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: The NCSP collects data to 
determine an applicant's eligibility for the program, monitor a 
participant's continued enrollment in a school of nursing, monitor the 
participant's compliance with the NCSP service obligation, and prepare 
annual reports to Congress. The following information will be 
collected: (1) From the schools, on a quarterly basis--general 
applicant and nursing school data such as full name, location, tuition/
fees, and enrollment status; (2) from the schools, on an annual basis--
data concerning tuition/fees and overall student enrollment status; and 
(3) from the participants and their employing CSF on a biannual basis--
data concerning the participant's employment status, work schedule, and 
leave usage.
    The revision to this clearance package will incorporate one new 
form and one updated form. The CSF Verification Form will be used to 
verify participant transfers to CSFs. The Initial Employment 
Verification Form has been revised to include all eligible service site 
types listed in the NCSP Application and Program Guidance.
    Likely Respondents: NCSP scholars in school, graduates, educational 
institutions, and CSFs.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the 
information requested. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying 
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and 
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to
