Eligibility
| Eligible Applicants: | Others (see text field entitled “Additional Information on Eligibility” for clarification) |
| Additional Information on Eligibility: | On December 19, 2011, we published a notice in the Federal Register (76 FR 78621) inviting applications for new awards for FY 2012 for the UB Program (NIA). On January 25, 2012, we published a second notice in the Federal Register (77 FR 3751) extending the deadline date for the transmittal of applications to February 1, 2012, and extending the deadline date for Intergovernmental Review to April 2, 2012. Shortly before the revised application deadline date, it came to the Department’s attention that some informational materials made available on a Department Web site contained an error that may have led some applicants to incorrectly respond to one of the competitive preference priorities. Following a review of the nature and extent of the error and concerns about its potential effects on applicants’ scores, the Department is reopening the competition for two weeks to provide time for applicants that submitted timely applications under the February 1, 2012, deadline and that may have been affected by this error to submit amended applications. Eligible Applicants: Institutions of higher education; public and private agencies and organizations, including community-based organizations with experience in serving disadvantaged youth; combination of these institutions, agencies, and organizations; and secondary schools. |
