evaluate the application. The faculty applicant must limit the
application narrative to no more than 10 pages and the bibliography to
no more than 2 pages, using the following standards:
A ``page'' is 8.5'' x 11'', on one side only, with 1''
margins at the top, bottom, and both sides.
Double space (no more than three lines per vertical inch)
all text in the application narrative. However, faculty applicants may
single space all text in charts, tables, figures, graphs, titles,
headings, footnotes, endnotes, quotations, bibliography, and captions.
Use a font that is either 12 point or larger or no smaller
than 10 pitch (characters per inch). Faculty applicants may use a 10
point font in charts, tables, figures, graphs, footnotes, and endnotes.
However, these items are considered part of the narrative and counted
within the 10 page limit.
Use one of the following fonts: Times New Roman, Courier,
Courier New, or Arial. An application submitted in any other font
(including Times Roman or Arial Narrow) will not be accepted.
The page limits only apply to the application narrative and
bibliography. The page limits do not apply to the Application for
Federal Assistance face sheet (SF 424); the supplemental information
form required by the Department of Education; and the assurances and
certification. However, faculty applicants must include their complete
responses to the selection criteria in the application narrative.
We will reject a faculty applicant's application if the faculty
applicant exceeds the page limits.
3. Submission Dates and Times:

7. Other Submission Requirements: Applications for grants under
this program must be submitted electronically unless an IHE qualifies
for an exception to this requirement in accordance with the
instructions in this section.
a. Electronic Submission of Applications.
Applications for grants under the FRA Fellowship Program--CFDA
Number 84.019A must be submitted electronically using e-Application,
accessible through the Department's e-Grants Web site at:
http:// e-grants.ed.gov.
We will reject an application if an IHE submits it in paper format
unless, as described elsewhere in this section, the IHE qualifies for
one of the exceptions to the electronic submission requirement and
submits, no later than two weeks before the application deadline date,
a written statement to the Department that the IHE qualifies 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.
While completing the electronic application, both the IHE and the
faculty applicant will be entering data online that will be saved into
a database. Neither the IHE nor the faculty applicant may e-mail an
electronic copy of a grant application to us.
Please note the following:
The process for submitting applications electronically
under the FRA Fellowship Program has several parts. The following is a
brief summary of the process; however, all applicants should review and
follow the detailed description of the application process that is
contained in the application package. In summary, the major parts are
as follows: (1) IHEs must e-mail the following information to
cynthia.dudzinski@ed.gov: Name of university, and full name and e-mail
address of potential project director. We recommend that applicant IHEs
submit this information as soon as possible to ensure that applicant
IHEs obtain access to the e-Application system well before the
application deadline date. We suggest that applicant IHEs send this
information no later than two weeks prior to the closing date, in order
to facilitate timely submission of their applications; (2) Faculty must
complete their individual applications and submit them to their IHE's
project director using e-Application; (3) Persons providing references
for individual faculty must complete reference forms for the faculty
and submit them to the IHE's project director using e-Application; and
(4) The IHE's project director must officially submit the IHE's
application, which must include all eligible individual faculty
applications, reference forms, and other required forms, using e-
Application. Unless an IHE applicant qualifies for an exception to the
electronic submission requirement in accordance with the procedures in
this section, all portions of the application must be submitted
electronically.
The IHE must complete the electronic submission of the
grant application by 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the
application deadline date. E-Application will not accept an application
for this competition after 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the
application deadline date. Therefore, we strongly recommend that both
the IHE and the faculty applicant not wait until the application
deadline date to begin the application process.
The hours of operation of the e-Grants Web site are 6:00
a.m. Monday until 7:00 p.m. Wednesday; and 6:00 a.m. Thursday until
8:00 p.m. Sunday, Washington, DC time. Please note that, because of
maintenance, the system is unavailable between 8:00 p.m. on Sundays and
6:00 a.m. on Mondays, and between 7:00 p.m. on Wednesdays and 6:00 a.m.
on Thursdays, Washington, DC time. Any modifications to these hours are
posted on the e-Grants Web site.
Faculty applicants will not receive additional point value
because the faculty applicant submits his or her application in
electronic format, nor will we penalize the IHE or faculty applicant if
the IHE or the faculty applicant qualifies for an exception to the
electronic submission requirement, as described elsewhere in this
section, and submits an application in paper format.
IHEs 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. Both IHEs and faculty applicants must attach any
narrative sections of the application as files in a .DOC (document),
.RTF (rich text), or .PDF (Portable Document) format. If an IHE or a
faculty applicant uploads a file type other than the three file types
specified in this paragraph or submits a password protected file, we
will not review that material.
Both the IHE and the faculty applicant's electronic
applications must comply with any page limit requirements described in
this notice.
[[Page 60743]]
Prior to submitting your electronic application, you may
wish to print a copy of it for your records.
After the individual faculty applicant electronically
submits his or her application to the faculty's IHE, the faculty member
will receive an automatic acknowledgment. In addition, the applicant
IHE's project director will receive a copy of this acknowledgment by e-
mail. After a person submits a reference electronically, he or she will
receive an online confirmation. After the applicant IHE submits its
application, including all eligible individual faculty applications, to
the Department, the applicant IHE will receive an automatic
acknowledgment, which will include a PR/Award Number (an identifying
number unique to the IHE's application).
Within three working days after submitting the IHE's
electronic application, the IHE must follow these steps:
(1) Print SF 424 from e-Application.
(2) The applicant IHE's Authorizing Representative must sign this
form.
(3) Place the PR/Award number in the upper right hand corner of the
hard-copy signature page of the SF 424.
(4) Fax the signed SF 424 to the Application Control Center at
(202) 245-6272.
We may request that you provide us original signatures on
other forms at a later date.
Application Deadline Date Extension in Case of e-Application
Unavailability: If an IHE is prevented from electronically submitting
its application on the application deadline date because e-Application
is unavailable, we will grant the IHE an extension of one business day
to enable the IHE to transmit its application electronically, by mail,
or by hand delivery. We will grant this extension if--
(1) The IHE is a registered user of e-Application and the IHE has
initiated an electronic application for this competition; and
(2) (a) E-Application is unavailable for 60 minutes or more between
the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 3:30 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the
application deadline date; or
(b) E-Application is unavailable for any period of time between
3:30 p.m. and 4:30:00 p.m., Washington, DC time, on the application
deadline date.
We must acknowledge and confirm these periods of unavailability
before granting the IHE an extension. To request this extension or to
confirm our acknowledgement of any system unavailability, an IHE may
contact either (1) the person listed elsewhere in this notice under FOR
FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT (see section VII. Agency Contact) or (2)
the e-Grants help desk at 1-888-336-8930. If e-Application is
unavailable due to technical problems with the system and, therefore,
the application deadline is extended, an e-mail will be sent to all
registered users who have initiated an e-Application. Extensions
referred to in this section apply only to the unavailability of e-
Application.
Exception to Electronic Submission Requirement: An IHE qualifies
for an exception to the electronic submission requirement, and may
submit its application in paper format if the IHE is unable to submit
an application through e-Application because--
The IHE or a faculty applicant does not have access to the
Internet; or
The IHE or a faculty applicant does not have the capacity
to upload large documents to e-Application; 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
day following the Federal holiday), the IHE mails or faxes a written
statement to the Department, explaining which of the two grounds for an
exception prevents the IHE from using the Internet to submit its
application. If an IHE mails a written statement to the Department, it
must be postmarked no later than two weeks before the application
deadline date. If an IHE faxes its written statement to the Department,
we must receive the faxed statement no later than two weeks before the
application deadline date.
Address and mail or fax this statement to: Cynthia Dudzinski, U.S.
Department of Education, 1990 K Street, NW., room 6007, Washington, DC
20006-8521. FAX: (202) 502-7860.
The IHE's paper application must be submitted in accordance with
the mail or hand delivery instructions described in this notice.
b. Submission of Paper Applications by Mail.
If an IHE qualifies for an exception to the electronic submission
requirement, the IHE may mail (through the U.S. Postal Service or a
commercial carrier) its application to the Department. The IHE must
mail the original and two copies of the application, on or before the
application deadline date, to the Department at the following address:
U.S. Department of Education, Application Control Center, Attention:

we do not accept either of the following as proof of mailing:
(1) A private metered postmark.
(2) A mail receipt that is not dated by the U.S. Postal Service.
If the IHE's application is postmarked after the application
deadline date, we will not consider its application.
Note: The U.S. Postal Service does not uniformly provide a dated
postmark. Before relying on this method, the IHE should check with
its local post office.
c. Submission of Paper Applications by Hand Delivery.
If an IHE qualifies for an exception to the electronic submission
requirement, the IHE (or a courier service) may deliver its paper
application to the Department by hand. The IHE must deliver the
original and two copies of the application, by hand, on or before the
application deadline date, to the Department at the following address:
U.S. Department of Education, Application Control Center, Attention:

Note for Mail or Hand Delivery of Paper Applications: If an IHE
mails or hand delivers its application to the Department--
(1) The IHE must indicate on the envelope and--if not provided
by the Department--in Item 11 of the SF 424 the CFDA Number,
including suffix letter, if any, of the competition under which the
IHE is submitting its application; and
(2) The Application Control Center will mail a notification of
receipt of the IHE's grant application. If the IHE does not receive
the grant application receipt acknowledgment within 15 business days
from the application deadline date, the IHE should call the U.S.
Department of Education Application Control Center at (202) 245-
6288.
V. Application Review Information
1. General: For FY 2011, faculty applications are divided into
seven categories based on the world area focus of their research
projects, as described
[[Page 60744]]
in the absolute priority listed in this notice. Language and area
studies experts in discrete world area-based panels will review the
faculty applications. Each panel reviews, scores, and ranks its
applications separately from the applications assigned to the other
world area panels. However, all fellowship applications will be ranked
together from the highest to lowest score for funding purposes.
2. Selection Criteria: The selection criteria for this competition
are from 34 CFR 663.21 and are listed in the following paragraphs. The
maximum score for all of the criteria, including the competitive
preference priorities, is 110 points. The maximum score for each
criterion is indicated in parentheses.
Quality of proposed project (60 points): The Secretary reviews each
application to determine the quality of the research project proposed
by the applicant. The Secretary considers--
(1) The statement of the major hypotheses to be tested or questions
to be examined, and the description and justification of the research
methods to be used (10 points);
(2) The relationship of the research to the literature on the topic
and to major theoretical issues in the field, and the project's
originality and importance in terms of the concerns of the discipline
(10 points);
(3) The preliminary research already completed or plans for
research prior to going overseas, and the kinds, quality and
availability of data for the research in the host country or countries
(10 points);
(4) The justification for overseas field research and preparations
to establish appropriate and sufficient research contacts and
affiliations abroad (10 points);
(5) The applicant's plans to share the results of the research in
progress with scholars and officials of the host country or countries
and the American scholarly community (10 points); and
(6) The objectives of the project regarding the sponsoring
institution's plans for developing or strengthening, or both, curricula
in modern foreign languages and area studies (10 points).
Qualifications of the applicant (40 points): The Secretary reviews
each application to determine the qualifications of the applicant. The
Secretary considers--
(1) The overall strength of the applicant's academic record
(teaching, research, contributions, professional association
activities) (10 points);
(2) The applicant's excellence as a teacher or researcher, or both,
in his or her area or areas of specialization (10 points);
(3) The applicant's proficiency in one or more of the languages
(other than English and the applicant's native language) of the country
or countries of research, and the specific measures to be taken to
overcome any anticipated language barriers (15 points); and
(4) The applicant's ability to conduct research in a foreign
cultural context, as evidenced by the applicant's previous overseas
experience, or documentation provided by the sponsoring institution, or
both (5 points).
VI. Award Administration Information
1. Award Notices: If a faculty application is successful, we notify
the IHE's U.S. Representative and U.S. Senators and send the IHE a
Grant Award Notification (GAN). We may notify the IHE informally, also.
If a faculty application is not evaluated or not selected for
funding, we notify the IHE.
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 the approved application as part of the binding
commitments under the grant.
3. Reporting: At the end of the project period, the IHE must submit
a final performance report, including the final reports of all of the
IHE's fellows, and financial information, as directed by the Secretary.
The IHE and fellows are required to use the International Resource
Information System (IRIS) electronic reporting system to complete the
final report.
4. Performance Measures: Under the Government Performance and
Results Act of 1993, the objective for the FRA Fellowship Program is to
provide grants to IHEs to fund faculty to maintain and improve their
area studies and language skills by conducting research abroad for
periods of three to twelve months.
The Department will use the following FRA Fellowship Program
measures to evaluate its success in meeting this objective:
Performance Measure 1: The average language competency score of FRA
Fellowship Program recipients at the end of their period of research
minus their average language competency score at the beginning of the
period.
Performance Measure 2: Percentage of all FRA Fellowship Program
projects judged to be successful by the program officer, based on a
review of information provided in annual performance reports.
Efficiency Measure: Cost per FRA Fellowship Program grantee
increasing language competency by at least one level in at least one
area.
The information provided by grantees in their performance report
submitted via IRIS will be the source of data for this measure.
