SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This proposed information collection was 
previously published in the Federal Register on November 1, 2023, page 
75007 (88 FR 75007) and allowed 60 days for public comment. One public

additional 30 days for public comment. The Office of the Director, 
National Institutes of Health (NIH), may not conduct or sponsor, and 
the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection 
that has been extended, revised, or implemented on or after October 1, 
1995, unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) control number.
    In compliance with Section 3507(a)(1)(D) of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, NIH has submitted to OMB a request for review and approval 
of the information collection listed below.
    Proposed Collection: NIH Office of Intramural Training & 
Education--Application, Registration, and Alumni Systems, 0925-0299, 
exp., date, 31-May-2027, REVISION, Office of Intramural Training & 
Education (OITE), Office of Intramural Research (OIR), Office of the 
Director (OD), National Institutes of Health (NIH).
    Need and Use of Information Collection: The 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 other than their time. The total estimated annualized 
burden hours are 12,824.
