    Need and Use of Information Collection: The Office of Intramural 
Training & Education (OITE) administers a variety of programs and 
initiatives to recruit pre-college through pre-doctoral educational 
level individuals into the National Institutes of Health Intramural 
Research Program (NIH-IRP) to facilitate their development into future 
biomedical scientists. The proposed information collection is necessary 
in order to determine the eligibility and quality of potential awardees 
for traineeships in these programs. The applications for admission 
consideration solicit information including: Personal information, 
ability to meet eligibility criteria, contact information, university-
assigned student identification number, training program selection, 
scientific discipline interests, educational history, standardized 
examination scores, reference information, resume components, 
employment history, employment interests, dissertation research 
details, letters of recommendation, financial aid history, sensitive 
data, and travel information, as well as feedback questions about 
interviews and application submission experiences. Sensitive data 
collected on the applicants: Race, gender, ethnicity, relatives at NIH, 
and recruitment method, are made available only to OITE staff members 
or in aggregate form to select NIH offices and are not used by the 
admission committees for admission consideration. In addition, 
information to monitor trainee placement after departure from NIH is 
periodically collected.
    OMB approval is requested for 3 years. There are no costs to 
respondents
