partnering institutions are required to offer financial support to 
RPCVs who, in turn, complete substantive internships related to their 
program of study in underserved communities in the United States. This

Coverdell Fellows Program.

including the validity of the information to be collected; and, ways to 
minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are

techniques, when appropriate, and other forms of information 
technology.
