August Grants

Student Support Services (SSS) Program: The purpose of the SSS Program is to increase the number of disadvantaged low-income college students, first generation college students, & college students with disabilities in the United States who successfully complete a program of study at the postsecondary level of education. The support services provided should increase their retention & graduation rates, facilitate their transfer from two-year to four-year colleges, & foster an institutional climate supportive of their success. Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: August 31, 2004. Eligible Applicants: Institutions of higher education or combinations of institutions of higher education. Estimated Available Funds: The Administration has requested $266,557,000 for this program for FY 2005. The actual level of funding, if any, depends on final congressional action. However, we are inviting applications to allow enough time to complete the grant process if Congress appropriates funds for this program. Estimated Range of Awards: $220,000-$350,000. Estimated Average Size of Awards: $280,000.#
