collection.

    Abstract: As provided by the Higher Education Act of 1965, as 
amended, (HEA) these regulations allow students with intellectual 
disabilities, who enroll in an eligible comprehensive transition 
program to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance under the Federal 
Pell Grant, the Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant 
(FSEOG), and the Federal Work Study (FWS) programs. This request is for 
a extension of the current recordkeeping requirements contained in the 
regulations at 34 CFR 668.232 and 668.233, related to the 
administrative requirement of the financial assistance for students 
with intellectual disabilities program. The information collection 
requirements are necessary to determine the eligibility to receive 
program benefits and to prevent fraud and abuse of the program funds.

Strategy Division, Office of Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning,
