SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Authority: Public Law 115-48 Section 111, and Title 38 U.S.C. 3320.
Title: Edith Nourse Rogers STEM Scholarship, VAF 22-10203.
OMB Control Number: 2900-0878.
Type of Review: Revision of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: Section 111 of Public Law 115-48 added new Section 3320
to title 38, U.S.C. 3320 authorizes VA to administer the Edith Nourse
Rogers STEM Scholarship Program. Under the program, VA provides up to 9
months or $30,000 of Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to certain eligible
individuals selected by the Secretary of VA. To apply for and receive
the scholarship, an individual must complete the application, VA Form
22-10203. VA continues to require approval of this information
collection so students can continue to apply, and for VA to continue to
assess how to prioritize the awarding of the Scholarship, based on the
information collected on the form. This collection renewal resulted in
a decrease in burden hours due to a significant decrease in the initial
number of scholarship applicants that submitted an application for the
program during the periods from 2020 and 2021.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a
60-day comment period soliciting comments on this collection of
information was published at 88 FR 9966 on February 15, 2023, page(s)
9966-9967.
Affected Public: Individuals and Households.
Estimated Annual Burden: 1,396 hours.
Estimated Average Burden Time Per Respondent: 5 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Once.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 16,752.
By direction of the Secretary.
