Federal Register Notice dated December 15, 2011
Phase 1. Program-Specific Eligibility and Formula Data
Part I of the application is the submission of information required for the Department to determine whether or not an institution qualifies as a PBI, and to calculate how much funding a PBI will receive, based on the formula established in the program legislation. The information will be submitted on a form that must be submitted electronically as an e-mail attachment to pbiprogram@ed.gov by 12:00:00 a.m. Washington, DC time, on the deadline date. In order to calculate how much all grantee institutions will receive, it is essential that Part I of the application, the Formula Data, be submitted on time. No calculations can be made unless and until all PBIs have submitted the required information in full. Once determinations have been made, institutions will be informed whether or not they qualify as a PBI and how much they will be receiving. Applicants are strongly encouraged not to wait for this notification before beginning Part II of the application.
Phase 2. Project Plan, Standard Forms, Certifications and Surveys
In Phase 2, Parts II and III of the application will be submitted after the institution is informed by the Department how much funding it will receive based on the data submitted by the institution in Part I. Part II includes the budget, budget narrative, and a project narrative of no more than 50 pages describing the project activities, the goals and objectives of the project, and an evaluation plan including performance measures. Part III of the application includes the standard forms, certifications and surveys. More guidance regarding the Project Plan can be found in the application.
