The 2012/17 Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study (BPS:12/17) is conducted by the National
Center for Education Statistics (NCES), within the U.S. Department of Education (ED). BPS is designed to follow
a cohort of students who enroll in postsecondary education for the first time during the same academic year,
irrespective of the date of high school completion. Data from BPS are used to help researchers and policymakers
better understand how financial aid influences persistence and completion, what percentages of students
complete various degree programs, what are the early employment and wage outcomes for certificate and degree
attainers, and why students leave school. The request to conduct the BPS:12/17 full-scale data collection was
approved by OMB in December 2016 with the latest change request approved in July 2017 (OMB# 1850-0631
v.10-15). This request is to: (1) begin the next stage of the BPS:12/17 responsive design plan by offering a
specific incentive strategy (an abbreviated interview) to targeted members of the main BPS:12/17 sample, based
on recent modeling using study nonrespondents, (2) request approval for additional student contacting materials
(reminder and prompting emails), and (3) revise text for the confidentiality pledge and citation of security and
confidentiality requirements in BPS:12/17 recruitment and data collection materials.
