    Needs and Uses: This information collection is necessary for the 
United States Marine Corps to verify a potential officer candidate's 
suitability for service. This information collection request consists 
of two forms used in this process: NAVMC Form 10469, ``Academic 
Certification for Marine Corps Officer Candidate Program,'' and NAVMC 
Form 10064, ``Personal Information Questionnaire (PIQ).'' The NAVMC 
Form 10469 collects information about the candidate's educational 
background, and the NAVMC Form 10064 is used to evaluate the 
candidate's moral character. To accomplish officer procurement 
requirements prescribed in 10 United States Code (U.S.C.) 8042, 10 
U.S.C. Chapter 32, the Marine Corps Recruiting Command (MCRC) Officer 
Commissioning Manual (MCRC Order 1100.02), and Marine Corps Order 
1130.76D, the Marine Corps Officer Selection Officer (OSO) must 
prospect, screen, and contract qualified individuals. The NAVMC 10469 
and 10064 forms are a vital part of this process.
    The NAVMC Form 10469 is used to verify a potential officer 
candidate's academic background and standardized test scores. During 
their initial interview with an OSO, applicants provide information 
about the colleges or universities they have attended. The OSO emails 
the NAVMC Form 10469 to the Registrar's office of the institutions 
identified by the applicant. The school Registrar's office completes 
the form with information regarding the student's degree plan, major, 
credit hours, and grades. The respondent will then digitally sign the 
form and return it to the OSO via email. It is then uploaded into the 
potential officer's application via the MCRC's Automated Commissioning 
Package database.
    The NAVMC 10064 is completed by the five-character references 
provided by potential applicants during the Marine Corps Officer 
Candidate application process. The OSO will contact the references and 
provide the PIQ via email for completion. Once a reference has 
completed the form, they will sign it electronically and return it to 
the OSO via email. In limited cases, the respondent may request to hand 
deliver their response to the OSO or receive/return the PIQ via the 
U.S. Postal Service. A prepaid envelope is provided to the respondent 
if required.

The PIQ is used by the OSO and the selection board to assess the 
personal and moral character of an applicant and as a tool to better 
assess the possibility of them becoming a Marine Corps Officer.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Respondent's Obligation: Voluntary.
    DoD Clearance Officer: Mr. Reginald Lucas.
