minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents, including
through the use of information technology. Please note that written
comments received in response to this notice will be considered public

Title of Collection: Student Support Services Annual Performance
Report.
OMB Control Number: 1840-0525.
Type of Review: A revision of a currently approved ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private sector.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1,161.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 17,821.
Abstract: Student Support Services (SSS) program grantees must
submit the Annual Performance Report (APR) annually. The reports are
used to evaluate grantees' performance for substantial progress,
respond to Government Performance and Results Act requirements, and
award prior experience points at the end of each project (budget)
period. The Department also aggregates the data to provide descriptive
information on the projects and to analyze the impact of the SSS
program on the academic progress of participating students.
The form has been revised to include an additional field addressing
the Higher Education Act provision that requires the Secretary to
report comparable data on the performance of not only first-generation
and low-income students but also on students with disabilities. This
field adds a small amount of additional burden per grantee.
