DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

[CFDA No. 84.033]


Student Financial Assistance, Federal Perkins Loan Program, 
Federal Work-Study Program, and Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant 
Program

AGENCY: Department of Education.

ACTION: Notice of the closing date for submission of the Campus-Based 
Reallocation Form (ED Form E40-4P).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Secretary gives notice that institutions in the campus-
based programs (Federal Perkins Loan Program, Federal Work-Study (FWS) 
Programs, and Federal Supplemental Opportunity Grant Program) that wish 
to return any unused 2000-2001 Federal funds or wish to request 
supplemental 2001-2002 FWS funds for community service must submit the 
Campus-Based Reallocation Form prior to midnight, Eastern time, on 
August 24, 2001, via the Department's Student Aid Internet Gateway 
(formerly Title IV Wide Area Network or Title IV WAN). The information 
collected on the Campus-Based Reallocation Form is used to determine 
the Federal funds available for supplemental awards and the campus-
based institutions that are eligible and wish to receive supplemental 
2001-2002 FWS funds for community service.

DATES: Closing Date and Method for Submitting a Campus-Based 
Reallocation Form. Institutions in the campus-based programs that wish 
to return any unused 2000-2001 Federal funds or wish to request 
supplemental 2001-2002 FWS funds for community service must submit the 
Campus-Based Reallocation Form prior to midnight, Eastern time, on 
August 24, 2001, via the Department's Student Aid Internet Gateway.
    The Campus-Based Reallocation Form is located in the Fiscal 
Operations Report for 2000-2001 and Application to Participate for 
2002-2003 (FISAP) software that is available for download at: 
www.sfadownload.ed.gov.
    Additional information about the reallocation process is provided 
in a ``Dear Partner'' letter that is available at: www.ifap.ed.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We will reallocate unexpended Federal funds 
from the 2000-2001 award year as supplemental allocations for the 2001-
2002 award year under all of the campus-based programs. Supplemental 
allocations will be issued this fall in accordance with the 
reallocation procedures in the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended 
(HEA). Under section 442(d) of the HEA, unexpended FWS Federal funds 
returned to the Secretary must be reallocated to eligible institutions 
that used at least 5 percent of the total 2000-2001 FWS Federal funds 
granted to the institution to compensate students employed as reading 
tutors of children or in family literacy activities as part of its 
community services activities. Because reallocated FWS Federal funds 
will be distributed on the basis of fair share shortfall criteria, you 
also must have a fair share shortfall to receive these funds. A fair 
share shortfall means that you have an unmet need for FWS funds as 
determined by the FWS allocation formula in the HEA that uses data 
reported on the FISAP. You must use all of the reallocated FWS Federal 
funds to compensate students employed in community services. To ensure 
consideration for supplemental FWS funds for the 2001-2002 award year, 
you must submit the Campus-Based Reallocation Form data by August 24, 
2001, via the Department's Student Aid Internet Gateway.
