    Title of Collection: Financial Value Transparency and Gainful 
Employment Reporting Requirements.
    OMB Control Number: 1845-NEW.
    Type of Review: A new ICR.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments; 
Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 284,574.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,300,810.
    Abstract: The regulations in Sec.  668.408 in Subpart Q--Financial 
Value Transparency, that were negotiated in 2022 and the Final Rule 
published in 2023, establish reporting requirements for postsecondary 
institutions who participate in the title IV programs under the Higher 
Education Act of 1965, as amended, to report on their students who 
enroll in, complete, or withdraw from a gainful employment (GE) program 
or an eligible non-GE program in specified award years. The new 
regulations also define the timeframes for institutions to report the 
required information. This is a new collection. We calculate the 
average annual burden hours as 2,300,810 for the average 284,574 
responses by 4,518 respondents over 3 years. We divided the total 3 
year burden hours 6,902,430 by the 853,723 responses to obtain these 
averages.
