NSF Sends CyberCorps Final Rule to OMB

Yesterday, the OMB’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) announced that it had received a final rule from the National Science Foundation on “NSF CyberCorps Scholarship for Service Program”. According to the listing for this rulemaking in the Fall 2022 Unified Agenda:

“NSF is finalizing amendments to the CyberCorps Scholarship for Service (SFS) Program which provides scholarships for cybersecurity undergraduate and graduate (MS or PhD) education. In return for the financial support, recipients must agree to work for the U.S. Government or a State, local, or Tribal government after graduation in a cybersecurity-related position, for a period equal to the length of the scholarship. NSF, in consultation with the Secretary of Education, is finalizing regulations governing the process of converting scholarships to student loans when the scholarship recipients fail to meet their required service obligations.”
