ACTION: Extension of closing date.

SUMMARY: On September 24, 1993, the Department of Education published a 
combined application notice in the Federal Register (58 FR 50153) 
inviting applications for new awards for fiscal year 1994 under many of 
the Department's direct grant and fellowship programs. Among the 
programs listed in the combined application notice was the Cooperative 
Education Program. Detailed information concerning the Cooperative 
Education Program competition was included in the program notice.
    The purpose of this notice is to allow those applicants in 
Mississippi affected by the recent severe weather additional time to 
submit their applications. Applicants who reside in the area designated 
by the President on February 18, 1994 as adversely affected by a major 
disaster under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency 
Assistance Act (42 U.S.C. 5121 et seq.) between February 11 and the 
original closing date may take advantage of this extension. Applicants 
should indicate in their applications that they reside in an adversely 
affected area as designated by the President.
    The revised deadline for receipt of applications for the 
Cooperative Education Program is March 31, 1994.

    Note: Applications must be received by the extended due date--
not postmarked by that date. Applications received after the 
extension will not be accepted.
