SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired
format.
A Federal Register notice with a 60-day public comment period
soliciting comments on this collection of information was published on
June 15, 2021 (86 FR 31728). No comments were received.
We are again soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is
described below. We are especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the
proper functions of the BIE; (2) will this information be processed and
used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4)
how might the BIE enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BIE minimize the
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use
of information technology.
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your address, phone number, email
address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire comment--including your personal
identifying information--may be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to do so.
Abstract: The BIE is requesting renewal of OMB approval for the
admission forms for the Student Enrollment Application in Bureau-funded
Schools. School registrars collect information on this form to
determine the student's eligibility for enrollment in a Bureau-funded
school, and if eligible, is shared with appropriate school officials to
identify the student's base and supplemental educational and/or
residential program needs. The BIE compiles the information into a
national database to facilitate budget requests and the allocation of
congressionally appropriated funds.

of the form.
