31, 2014.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request more information on this 
proposed information collection or to obtain a copy of the proposal and 
associated collection instruments, please write to the U.S. Army ROTC 
Cadet Command, ATTN: ATCC-01, 55 Patch Road, Building 56, Fort Monroe, 
VA 23651-1052, or call Department of the Army Reports Clearance Officer 
at 703-428-6440.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: Army ROTC Referral 
Information, ROTC Form 155-R, OMB Control Number 0702-0111.
    Needs and Uses: The Army ROTC Program produces approximately 75 
percent of the newly commissioned officers for the U.S. Army. The Army 
ROTC must have the ability to attract quality men and women who will 
pursue college degrees. Currently, there are 13 recruiting teams 
(Goldminers) located in various places across the United States aiding 
in this cause. Their mission is to refer quality high school students 
to colleges and universities offering Army ROTC. Goldminers, two 
officer personnel, will collect ROTC referral information at a high 
school campus and document it on ROTC Cadet Command Form 155-R.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Annual Burden Hours: 4,075.
    Number of Respondents: 16,300.
    Responses Per Respondent: 1.
    Average Burden Per Response: 15 minutes.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    The purpose of the information is to provide prospect referral data 
to a Professor of Military Science to contact individuals who have 
expressed an interest in Army ROTC. If Goldminers did not collect 
referral information, we would suffer a negative impact on the 
recruiting effort and subsequent commissioning of new officers for the 
U.S. Army.
