How to apply...
Application Procedure:
To participate, an organization must have on file with the Secretary of Education, by the designated deadline, an application which complies with the statutory requirements. Standard application forms furnished by the Federal agency will be used. This program is excluded from coverage under OMB Circular No. A-110.
Note: Each program will indicate whether applications are to be submitted to the Federal headquarters, regional or local office, or to a State or local government office.
Award Procedure:
Applications are approved for awards by the Secretary of Education based upon the recommendations of an expert panel and program staff.
Note: Grant payments may be made by a letter of credit, advance by Treasury check, or reimbursement by Treasury check.
Awards may be made by the headquarters office directly to the applicant, an agency field office, a regional office,
or by an authorized county office. The assistance may pass through the initial applicant for further distribution by
intermediate level applicants to groups or individuals in the private sector.
