Full Text of Announcement

I. Funding Opportunity Description

    Purpose of Program: The purpose of CAMP is to provide academic and 
financial support to help migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their 
children complete their first year of college and continue in 
postsecondary education.
    Priorities: This competition includes four priorities. In 
accordance with 34 CFR 75.105(b)(2)(ii), the competitive preference 
priority for being a ``novice applicant'' is from the Education 
Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) (34 CFR 75.225). 
In accordance with 34 CFR 75.105(b)(2)(iv), the competitive preference 
priority for ``prior experience of service delivery'' is from section 
418A(e) of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended by the Higher 
Education Opportunity Act (20 U.S.C. 1070d-2(e)). The third priority is 
an invitational priority for applications that promote science, 
technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education. The fourth 
priority is an invitational priority for applications that propose to 
engage faith-based and community organizations in the delivery of 
services under this program.
    Competitive Preference Priorities: For FY 2011 these priorities are 
competitive preference priorities. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(2)(i) we 
award: (1) An additional five points to an application that meets the 
``novice applicant'' competitive preference priority; and (2) up to a 
maximum of 15 additional points to an application, depending on how 
well the applicant meets the ``prior experience of service delivery'' 
competitive preference priority.
    These priorities are:
    Novice Applicant: The applicant must be a ``novice applicant'' as 
defined in 34 CFR 75.225(a). A novice applicant is defined as one who 
has: (i) Never received a grant or a subgrant under the CAMP program; 
(ii) never been a member of a group application, submitted in 
accordance with 34 CFR 75.127-75.129, that received a grant under the 
CAMP program; and (iii) not had an active discretionary grant from the 
Federal government in the five (5) years before the deadline date of 
receiving applications.
    Prior Experience of Service Delivery: For applicants with an 
expiring CAMP project, the Secretary will consider the applicant's 
prior experience in implementing its expiring CAMP project, based on 
information contained in documents previously provided to the 
Department, such as annual performance reports, project evaluation 
reports, site visit reports, and the previously approved CAMP 
application.
    Under this competition, we also are particularly interested in 
applications that address the following priorities.
    Invitational Priorities: For FY 2011, these priorities are 
invitational priorities. Under 34 CFR 75.105(c)(1), we do not give an 
application that meets these invitational priorities a competitive or 
absolute preference over other applications.
    These priorities are:
    Invitational Priority 1--Science, Technology, Engineering and 
Mathematics (STEM) Education:
    Projects that are designed to address one or more of the following 
priority areas:
    (a) Providing students with increased access to rigorous and 
engaging coursework in STEM.
    (b) Increasing the number and proportion of students prepared for 
postsecondary or graduate study and careers in STEM, with a specific 
focus on an increase in the number and proportion of students so 
prepared who are from groups traditionally underrepresented in STEM 
careers, including minorities, individuals with disabilities, and 
women.

    Note: Applicants could consider increasing participants' access 
to studies in STEM through such activities as counseling and 
tutoring of participants in ways that motivate them to pursue 
postsecondary education in the areas of STEM. Similarly, applicants 
could consider increasing students' preparedness for study and 
careers in STEM through activities such as referrals to STEM-
oriented work study, exposure to academic programs and careers in 
STEM-related fields, and providing support services, such as 
services to improve participants' academic skills and content 
knowledge, so that they may pursue studies and careers in STEM-
related fields.

    Invitational Priority 2--Faith-Based and Community Organizations: 
Applications that propose to engage faith-based and community 
organizations in the delivery of services under this program.

    Program Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1070d-2.
    Applicable Regulations: (a) The Education Department General 
Education Regulations (EDGAR) in 34 CFR parts 74, 75, 77, 79, 82, 84, 
85, 86, 97, 98, and 99. (b) The regulations in 34 CFR part 206. (c) The 
definitions of a migratory agricultural worker in 34 CFR 200.81(d), 
migratory child in 34 CFR 200.81(e), and migratory fisher in 34 CFR 
200.81(f). (d) The regulations in 20 CFR 669.110 and 669.320.

    Note:  The regulations in 34 CFR part 86 apply to institutes of 
higher education (IHEs) only.


    Note:  The Department published final regulations updating the 
program regulations in accordance with the changes enacted by the 
HEOA in the Federal Register on October 26, 2010 (75 FR 65711). 
These revised regulations will be effective on December 27, 2010. 
The application package identifies any provisions in part 206 that 
have been superseded by enactment of the HEOA.

II. Award Information

    Type of Award: Discretionary grants.
    Estimated Available Funds: The Administration has requested 
$2,841,000 for new awards for this program for FY 2011. 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: $180,000-$425,000.
    Estimated Average Size of Awards: $410,000.
    Maximum Award: We will reject any application that proposes a CAMP 
award exceeding $425,000 for any of the five single budget periods of 
12 months. The Assistant Secretary for Elementary and Secondary 
Education may change the maximum amount through a notice published in 
the Federal Register.
    Minimum Award: We will reject any application that proposes a CAMP 
award that is less than $180,000 for any of the five single budget 
periods of 12 months. The Assistant Secretary for Elementary and 
Secondary Education may change the minimum amount through a notice 
published in the Federal Register.
    Estimated Number of Awards: 7.

    Note:  The Department is not bound by any estimates in this 
notice.

    Project Period: Up to 60 months.

III. Eligibility Information

    1. Eligible Applicants: IHEs or private non-profit organizations 
(including faith-based organizations) that plan their projects in 
cooperation with an IHE and

[[Page 73051]]

propose to operate some aspects of the project with the facilities of 
the IHE.
    2. Cost Sharing or Matching: This program does not require cost 
sharing or matching. However, consistent with 34 CFR 75.700, which 
requires an applicant to comply with its approved application, an 
applicant that proposes non-Federal matching funds and is awarded a 
grant must provide those funds for each year that the funds are 
proposed.
    3. Annual Meeting Attendance: Projects funded under this 
competition are encouraged to budget for a two-day Office of Migrant 
Education Annual Meeting for CAMP Directors in the Washington, DC area 
during each year of the project period.

a. Electronic Submission of Applications
    Applications for grants under the College Assistance Migrant 
Program, CFDA number 84.149A must be submitted electronically using the 
Governmentwide Grants.gov Apply site at http://www.Grants.gov. Through 
this site, you will be able to download a copy of the application 
package, complete it offline, and then upload and submit your 
application. You may not e-mail an electronic copy of a grant 
application to us.
    We will reject your application if you submit it in paper format 
unless, as described elsewhere in this section, you qualify for one of 
the exceptions to the electronic submission requirement and submit, no 
later than two weeks before the application deadline date, a written 
statement to the Department that you qualify for one of these 
exceptions. Further information regarding calculation of the date that 
is two weeks before the application deadline date is provided later in 
this section under Exception to Electronic Submission Requirement.
    You may access the electronic grant application for the College 
Assistance Migrant Program at http://www.Grants.gov. You must search 
for the downloadable application package for this competition by the 
CFDA number. Do not include the CFDA number's alpha suffix in your 
search (e.g., search for 84.149, not 84.149A).
    Please note the following:
     When you enter the Grants.gov site, you will find 
information about submitting an application electronically through the 
site, as well as the hours of operation.
     Applications received by Grants.gov are date and time 
stamped. Your application must be fully uploaded and submitted and must 
be date and time stamped by the Grants.gov system no later than 4:30:00 
p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application deadline date. Except as 
otherwise noted in this section, we will not accept your application if 
it is received--that is, date and time stamped by the Grants.gov 
system--after 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application 
deadline date. We do not consider an application that does not comply 
with the deadline requirements. When we retrieve your application from 
Grants.gov, we will notify you if we are rejecting your application 
because it was date and time stamped by the Grants.gov system after 
4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application deadline date.
     The amount of time it can take to upload an application 
will vary depending on a variety of factors, including the size of the 
application and the speed of your Internet connection. Therefore, we 
strongly recommend that you do not wait until the application deadline 
date to begin the submission process through Grants.gov.
     You should review and follow the Education Submission 
Procedures for submitting an application through Grants.gov that are 
included in the application package for this competition to ensure that 
you submit your application in a timely manner to the Grants.gov 
system. You can also find the Education Submission Procedures 
pertaining to Grants.gov under News and Events on the Department's G5 
system home page at http://www.G5.gov.
     You will not receive additional point value because you 
submit your application in electronic format, nor will we penalize you 
if you qualify for an exception to the electronic submission 
requirement, as described elsewhere in this section, and submit your 
application in paper format.
     You must submit all documents electronically, including 
all information you typically provide on the following forms: the 
Application for Federal Assistance (SF 424), the Department of 
Education Supplemental Information for SF 424, Budget Information--Non-
Construction Programs (ED 524), and all necessary assurances and 
certifications.
     You must attach any narrative sections of your application 
as files in a .PDF (Portable Document) format only. If you upload a 
file type other than .PDF or submit a password-protected file, we will 
not review that material.
     Your electronic application must comply with any page-
limit requirements described in this notice.
     After you electronically submit your application, you will 
receive from Grants.gov an automatic notification of receipt that 
contains a Grants.gov tracking number. (This notification indicates 
receipt by Grants.gov only, not receipt by the Department.) The 
Department then will retrieve your application from Grants.gov and send 
a second notification to you by e-mail. This second notification 
indicates that the Department has received your application and has 
assigned your application a PR/Award number (an ED-specified 
identifying number unique to your application).
     We may request that you provide us original signatures on 
forms at a later date.
    Application Deadline Date Extension in Case of Technical Issues 
with the Grants.gov System: If you are experiencing problems submitting 
your application through Grants.gov, please contact the Grants.gov 
Support Desk, toll free, at 1-800-518-4726. You must obtain a 
Grants.gov Support Desk Case Number and must keep a record of it.
    If you are prevented from electronically submitting your 
application on the application deadline date because of technical 
problems with the Grants.gov system, we will grant you an extension 
until 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, the following business day to 
enable you to transmit your application electronically or by hand 
delivery. You also may mail your application by following the mailing 
instructions described elsewhere in this notice.
    If you submit an application after 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC 
time, on the application deadline date, please contact the person 
listed under FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT in section VII of this 
notice and provide an explanation of the technical problem you 
experienced with Grants.gov, along with the Grants.gov Support Desk 
Case Number. We will accept your application if we can confirm that a 
technical problem occurred with the Grants.gov system and that that 
problem affected your ability to submit your application by 4:30:00 
p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application deadline date. The 
Department will contact you after a determination is made on whether 
your application will be accepted.

    Note:  The extensions to which we refer in this section apply 
only to the unavailability of, or technical problems with, the 
Grants.gov system. We will not grant you an extension if you failed 
to fully register to submit your application to Grants.gov before 
the application deadline date and time or if the technical problem 
you experienced is unrelated to the Grants.gov system.

    Exception to Electronic Submission Requirement: You qualify for an 
exception to the electronic submission requirement, and may submit your 
application in paper format, if you are unable to submit an application 
through the Grants.gov system because--
     You do not have access to the Internet; or
     You do not have the capacity to upload large documents to 
the Grants.gov system; and
     No later than two weeks before the application deadline 
date (14 calendar days or, if the fourteenth calendar day before the 
application deadline date falls on a Federal holiday, the next business

V. Application Review Information

    1. Selection Criteria: The selection criteria for this competition 
are from 34 CFR 75.210 of EDGAR and are listed in the application 
package.
    2. Review and Selection Process: We remind potential applicants 
that in reviewing applications in any discretionary grant competition, 
the Secretary may consider, under 34 CFR 75.217(d)(3), the past 
performance of the applicant in carrying out a previous award, such as 
the applicant's use of funds, and compliance with grant conditions. The 
Secretary may also consider whether the applicant failed to submit a 
timely performance report or submitted a report of unacceptable 
quality.
    In addition, in making a competitive grant award, the Secretary 
also requires various assurances including those applicable to Federal 
civil rights laws that prohibit discrimination in programs or 
activities receiving Federal financial assistance from the Department 
of Education (34 CFR 100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
    3. Special Conditions: Under 34 CFR 74.14 and 80.12, the Secretary 
may impose special conditions on a grant if the applicant or grantee is 
not financially stable; has a history of unsatisfactory performance; 
has a financial or other management system that does not meet the 
standards in 34 CFR parts 74 or 80, as applicable; has not fulfilled 
the conditions of a prior grant; or is otherwise not responsible.

VI. Award Administration Information

    1. Award Notices: If your application is successful, we notify your 
U.S. Representative and U.S. Senators and send you a Grant Award 
Notification (GAN). We may notify you informally, also.
    If your application is not evaluated or not selected for funding, 
we notify you.
    2. Administrative and National Policy Requirements:
    We identify administrative and national policy requirements in the 
application package and reference these and other requirements in the 
Applicable Regulations section of this notice.
    We reference the regulations outlining the terms and conditions of 
an award in the Applicable Regulations section of this notice and 
include these and other specific conditions in the GAN. The GAN also 
incorporates your approved application as part of your binding 
commitments under the grant.
    3. Reporting: (a) If you apply for a grant under this competition, 
you must ensure that you have in place the necessary processes and 
systems to comply with the reporting requirements in 2 CFR part 170 
should you receive funding under the competition. This does not apply 
if you have an exception under 2 CFR 170.110(b).
    (b) At the end of your project period, you must submit a final 
performance report, including financial information, as directed by the 
Secretary. If you receive a multi-year award, you must submit an annual 
performance report that provides the most current performance and 
financial expenditure information as directed by the Secretary in 34 
CFR 75.118. The Secretary may also require more frequent performance 
reports under 34 CFR 75.720(c). For specific requirements on reporting, 
please go to http://www.ed.gov/fund/grant/apply/appforms/appforms.html.
    4. Performance Measures: Under the Government Performance and 
Results Act of 1993 (GPRA), the Department developed the following 
performance measures to evaluate the overall effectiveness of the CAMP: 
(1) The percentage of CAMP participants completing the first academic 
year of their postsecondary program, and (2) the percentage of CAMP 
participants, after completing the first academic year of

[[Page 73054]]

college, continue their postsecondary education.
    Applicants must propose annual targets for these measures in their 
applications. The national target for GPRA 1 for FY 2011 is that 86 
percent of CAMP participants will complete the first academic year of 
their postsecondary program. The national target for GPRA 2 for 2011 is 
that 85 percent of CAMP participants after completing the first 
academic year of college, continue their postsecondary education. The 
national targets for subsequent years may be adjusted based on 
additional baseline data. The panel readers will score related 
selection criteria on the basis of how well an applicant addresses 
these GPRA measures. Therefore, applicants will want to consider how 
they will make demonstration of a sound capacity to provide reliable 
data on GPRA measures, including the project's annual performance 
targets for addressing the GPRA performance measures, as is required by 
the OMB approved annual performance report that is included in the 
application package. All grantees will be required to submit, as part 
of their annual performance report, information with respect to these 
performance measures.
    5. Continuation Awards: In making a continuation award, the 
Secretary may consider, under 34 CFR 75.253, the extent to which a 
grantee has made ``substantial progress toward meeting the objectives 
in its approved application.'' This consideration includes the review 
of a grantee's progress in meeting the targets and projected outcomes 
in its approved application, and whether the grantee has expended funds 
in a manner that is consistent with its approved application and 
budget. In making a continuation grant, the Secretary also considers 
whether the grantee is operating in compliance with the assurances in 
its approved application, including those applicable to Federal civil 
rights laws that prohibit discrimination in programs or activities 
receiving Federal financial assistance from the Department (34 CFR 
100.4, 104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).
