Collects identifying and financial information from students applying for Federal student aid for postsecondary education. Used to calculate Expected Family Contribution and determine eligibility for grants and loans, under Title IV of the HEA.
The College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007 establishes, effective with the 2008-2009 award year, the Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant Program, which provides up to $4,000 a year in grant assistance to students who plan on being a teacher and meet certain specified requirements. Because the 2008-2009 FAFSA PRA burden hour estimate (approved Dec 2006) does not include the burden associated with reading and responding to a new TEACH grant question (the TEACH grant did not exist at that time) we are submitting this request for an emergency clearance of an updated 2008-2009 FAFSA. OMB has identified several conditions under which an agency may submit an emergency clearance request. The Department believes that two of these conditions apply: 1) Failture to make the change might result in harm to the public; and 2) The change is the result of an unanticipated event that has occurred beyond the control of the Department. We propose to accomplish this by asking the following question on FAFSA on the Web: "Are you planning on completing coursework, now or in the future, necessary for you to become an elementary or secondary school teacher? A 'YES' response to this question will allow your school to provide you with additional information on a new federal aid program for students who meet certain conditions and plan on becoming teachers." Through the updated FAFSA we are striving to make students aware of the TEACH Grant program and the eligibility criteria, in addition to determining their plans to pursue a teaching career.

A sentence is being added to three of the FAFSA IC's to address if the student is planning on being a teacher and meets certain qualificationsfor this new grant. This sentence is needed to see if a student is eligible for assistance under the new TEACH Grant program. The time involved in reading and responding to this one question has increased the FAFSA burden by 37,520 burden hours.
