SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
    Title; Associated Form; and OMB Number: National Defense University 
Student Profile; OMB Control Number 0704-XXXX.
    Type of Request: Existing collection in use without an OMB Control 
Number.
    Number of Respondents: 150.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 150.
    Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
    Annual Burden Hours: 50 hours.
    Needs and Uses: This information collection is required to complete 
the official student record, which is stored in the University Student 
Management System (USMS), a component of the National Defense 
University (NDU) Enterprise Information System. Through this 
information collection, students provide profile information such as 
demographics, educational background, military service or professional 
background, and emergency contact information. The information is 
critical to university operations as it is used to fulfill mandatory 
reporting requirements and ensure the safety of students. The 
information is collected from students electronically, via a web-based 
form that contains a combination of selected-response (radio buttons, 
drop-down menus) and open-response items. The National Defense 
University Student Profile (NSP) is completed by all students, but for 
the purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, this information 
collection request only covers NDU's relatively small student 
population of members of the public (foreign nationals and non-
government employee U.S. civilians). The collection is administered 
using a Drupal-based survey platform provided by USA Learning. The data 
are downloaded, processed, and transferred to the USMS by NDU's Office 
of Institutional Research. The end result is a set of complete student 
records for each academic year in the official repository for such 
record. The data are used for various institutional purposes such as 
mandatory reporting and notifying students of emergencies or closures.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    OMB Desk Officer: Ms. Jasmeet Seehra.
