Proposed Project: Health Professions Student Loan (HPSL) Program and
Nursing Student Loan (NSL) Program Administrative Requirements
(Regulations and Policy) (OMB No. 0915-0047)--Revision
The regulations for the Health Professions Student Loan (HPSL)
Program and Nursing Student Loan (NSL) Program contain a number of
reporting and recordkeeping requirements for schools and loan
applicants. The requirements are essential for assuring that borrowers
are aware of rights and responsibilities, that schools know the history
and status of each loan account, that schools pursue aggressive
collection efforts to reduce default rates, and that they maintain
adequate records for audit and assessment purposes. Schools are free to
use improved information technology to manage the information required
by the regulations.
The estimated total annual burden is 34,558 hours. The burden
estimates are as follows:
