Eligibility

| Additional Information on Eligibility: | This program accepts applications from Hispanic-Serving Institutions. Any U.S. nonprofit 501(c)(3) tax-exempt college or university that is a Hispanic-Serving Institution is eligible to apply. If you are uncertain about the status of your institution, begin by consulting this list: http://www2.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ope/idues/t3t5-eligibles-2011.pdf (PDF), compiled by the Department of Education, which includes both Title III institutions and Title V (Hispanic-serving) institutions. Your institution is eligible a) if it appears on the list; AND b) at least 25 percent of its undergraduate full-time equivalent enrollment consists of Hispanic students, as determined by the College Navigator tool at the website of the National Center for Education Statistics. (To use this tool, type in the name of your institution and then click on “Show Results.” A clickable version of the institution’s name will appear to the right of where you typed it in. Click on it, which will yield a series of items on which you can click. Click on “Enrollment,” the fifth choice in the column, and then examine the data for “Student Race/Ethnicity.” If the figure for “Hispanic/Latino” enrollment is 25 percent or more, your institution meets this requirement.) |
