SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department rescinds the following six systems of records from its inventory of systems of records subject to the Privacy Act. The rescindments are not within the purview of subsection r of the Privacy Act, which requires submission of a report to the Office of Management and Budget and the committees of jurisdiction in Congress on a new or significantly modified system of records.

The Department rescinds this system of records because the records previously maintained in the system are now maintained within the system of records titled National Student Loan Data System NSLDS
181106, which was last published in the Federal Register on September 9, 2019 84 FR 47265.
