1\. WHAT IS THIS PACKAGE?

This package contains the forms and instructions needed to prepare the
annual

performance report for the Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate
Achievement

(McNair) Program. The Department of Education (Department) uses the

information provided in the performance report to assess a grantee's
progress in

meeting its approved goals and objectives and to determine a grantee's
prior

experience points in accordance with the program regulations (34 CFR
647).

2\. WHAT ARE THE LEGISLATIVE AND REGULATORY AUTHORITIES

TO COLLECT THIS INFORMATION?

Title IV, Section 402E, of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended
(Public

Law 102-325), the program regulations in 34 CFR Part 647; and sections
75.590,

and 75.720 of the Education Department General Administrative
Regulations

(EDGAR) permit the collection of this information.

3\. WHO MUST FILE THIS REPORT?

All grantees funded under the McNair Program must submit an annual

performance report as a condition of the grant award.

4\. WHAT PERIOD OF TIME IS COVERED IN THE REPORT?

The individual participant information provided in the report should
cover the 12-

month academic year of the grantee institution that most closely aligns
with the

12-month budget year for the grant that is found in Block 6 of the Grant
Award

Notification. The 2006-07 academic year is roughly August/September 2006

through August 2007.

5\. WHEN SHOULD THE REPORT BE FILED?

The annual report should be submitted within 90 days after the end of
each 12-

month grant (budget) period.

Because the APR requests personal and confidential information on
project

participants, the secured Web site meets the Department of Education's
data

security standards for sensitive data, including improved password and
site access

procedures. Further, to ensure that the data is accessible only to
authorized

individuals and protected from unauthorized uses, a grantee must submit
the

participant level data via the Web application; under no circumstances
should a

grantee transmit the data to the Department or the APR Help Desk via
e-mail.

The Web application and instructions for submitting the report
electronically will

be available on December 3, 2007, at the following web address:

http://www.ed.gov/programs/triomcnair/performance.html

The Web site contains the forms and instructions needed to prepare and
submit

on-line the annual performance report for the McNair Program. The Web

application has the following features:

• Instructions for using the Web site, an introduction to the data

collection, and Online Help;

• A Web form for completing Sections I on-line;

• Functionality to upload an electronic file with the individual

participant records (Section II); Grantees may also choose to continue

to use the self-installing Visual Basic software application to collect

the required information and prepare the data file;

• A Web form that permits grantees to enter information directly
relative

to the Prior Experience criteria in Section III. .

• A print button to make a hard copy of the information entered;

• A submit button to send the entire report to the Department; and

• An e-mail confirmation that the report has been submitted (if an
e-mail

address is provided when completing Section I).

A project will receive confirmation that the report has been
successfully

submitted, if the person entering the performance report data provided a
valid e-

mail address in Section I. After the report has been submitted, a
confirmation will

be automatically sent to the e-mail address provided. If you do not
receive an e-

mail confirmation, contact the APR Help Desk.

program unless this

report is completed and filed as required by existing law (20 U.S.C.
1231a) and

regulations (34 CFR 75.590 and 75.720).

SECTION II: PARTICIPANT LIST

Each grantee is required to submit annually detailed information on each
student served

by the project during the academic year being reported as well as
provide updated

information on prior year participants still being tracked.

Please note that the data file you submit must conform to the
specifications of the

record structure.

• Fields \# 1 - 25 and 40 -- 44 should be completed or updated as needed
for all

current and prior year participants on the data file.

• Fields \# 26 - 39 should be completed only for new and continuing
project

participants who received these services from the McNair project during
the

current (2006-07) reporting period.

General Instructions for the Participant List

\(1\) Who should be included on the annual data file?

The data file should include one record for each student served by the
project during the

academic year being reported and for all prior year participants still
being tracked. A

project must track the progress of participants until they (1) obtain
the doctoral degree

(Ph.D., Ed.D., etc.) or a first professional degree (JD, MD, DDS, etc.),
(2) have not

enrolled in graduate or undergraduate studies for at least one term in
the last five years, or

\(3\) have been out of contact for a period of five or more years.

\(2\) How should participant's status (new, continuing, or prior year),
current

grade level, and enrollment status be reported?

When preparing the data file, please note the following clarifications
regarding how to

report a participant's status (new, continuing, or prior year), current
grade level, and end-

of-the-year enrollment status.

Since the Department of Education needs to be able to track the academic
progress of

McNair participants from one academic year to the next, this performance
report needs to

follow the 12-month academic year of the grantee institution instead of
the 12-month

budget/project year for the grant. For example, the 2006-2007 academic
year is roughly

August/September 2006 through August 2007 while the budget/project year
for most

McNair grants is October 1, 2006, through September 30, 2007. To ensure
consistency

in data reporting, please provide information on a participant's status
(field #16),

college grade level (field #18) and enrollment status (field #19) based
on the

"academic year" not the project's budget/project year.

For this report, the academic year being reported is from the fall 2006
term through the

end of the summer term 2007. For example, a McNair student served for
the first time by

the project during the fall 2006 semester should be reported as a "new
participant" in

field #16. That same student's college grade level (field #18) would
reflect the student's

grade level as of the end of the academic year being reported, and the
enrollment status

(field #19) would be "enrolled", since the student was enrolled at least
one term during

the academic year.

Instructions for Completing the Date Fields (Fields #8, #14, #15, and
#22)

Please follow carefully the instructions provided on the form. Review
carefully the Valid

Field Content column to ensure that the data submitted are in the
correct format. It is

extremely important that all date fields be 8 bytes and formatted as
follows: 2 digits for

month; 2 digits for day; two digits for century; and 2 digits for year.
For example, a

participant's birth date of January 1, 1982 would be formatted as
follows: 01011982.

Always use the zero before one-digit months and days. If you are
preparing Section II

using Microsoft Excel or Access, please refer to the Frequently Asked
Questions for

additional guidance on formatting to ensure that your dates will import
correctly.

Please make every effort to provide accurate dates. If you find it
necessary to estimate a

date, please do not enter "00s." Rather, use 15 for the day and your
best estimate for the

month. If date is unknown, please enter 00000000

SUPPLEMENTAL DEFINITIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR SPECIFIC FIELDS

Field #1---PR Award Number

A grantee should use the PR Award Number applicable to the project
(budget) period

covered by this report. This number can be found in Block 5 of the Grant
Award

Notification. Be sure that you use the PR Award Number applicable to the
reporting year

even if you have been awarded a new grant and PR/Award Number for the
next reporting

period.

Please note that the PR Award Number is eleven (11) digits in length.
Please be sure you

use "zeros" instead "Os" when entering the PR/Award Number into your
database.

Field #2---Batch Year

Use the four-digit year provided on the form. This number will change
with each year's

submission. The Batch Year designates the fiscal year funding for the
project period

reported. TRIO grants are forward-funded. Therefore, as an example,
fiscal year 2006

funds would be used to support project activities in the 2006-2007
program year. Thus,

the data file for Batch Year 2006 would include information on project
participants

served or tracked during academic year 2006-2007.

Field #3---Record Updated

This field assists us in quickly identifying whether or not you have
been successful in

tracking the academic progress of prior participants for this reporting
period. For new

participant records added to the data file for this reporting period,
select "1" for "Yes."

For prior year participants, select "1" for "Yes" if you have updated
and/or verified at

least part of the applicable data fields for this reporting period based
on information

received from the student (or the postsecondary institution); select "2"
for "No" if you

have not received updated information for the reporting year. If option
2 is used, please

use the code for "unknown/no response" in fields #18, #19, and #20.

Field #4---Social Security Number (SSN)

SSNs are very important as they assist the Department in tracking
participant outcomes

over multiple years and facilitate matching of participant records with
other databases. If

a project does not know a student's SSN, please enter 000000000 rather
than providing

other forms of identification numbers.

Field #10---Race /Ethnicity

The race/ethnicity categories used in this section are consistent with
the Department's

policy on the collection of racial and ethnic information. These
categories are defined as

follows: American Indian or Alaska Native - A person having origins in
any of the

original peoples of North America, and who maintains cultural
identification through

tribal affiliations or community recognition. Asian - A person having
origins in any of

the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, and the Indian
subcontinent. This

area includes, for example, China, India, Japan, Korea, and the
Philippines.

Black or African American - A person having origins in any of the black
racial groups

of Africa. Hispanic or Latino - A person of Mexican, Puerto Rican,
Cuban, Central or

South American or other Spanish culture or origin, regardless of race.
White - A person

having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, North Africa,
or the Middle East.

Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander -- A person having origins in
any of the

original peoples of Hawaii or other pacific islands such as Samoa and
Guam. For those

participants of a multi-racial background, select option "7 -More than
one race

reported."

Fields #11, 12, and 13---Program Eligibility

The statute and regulations governing the McNair Program require that an
eligible project

participant must be a "low-income individual who is a first-generation
college student" or

a "member of a group that is underrepresented in graduate education"
(definitions are

provided below). At least two-thirds of project participants each year
must be both low-

income and first-generation college students; the remaining participants
can be members

of groups underrepresented in graduate education.

Three fields allow for the analysis of project participants by all
combinations of

eligibility status: low-income and first-generation and underrepresented
racial/ethnic

group. If you do not collect income and first-generation data on
participants who qualify

for services as members of groups underrepresented in graduate
education, please select

option "0 -- Unknown/no response" for fields #11 and #12.

Low-income individual means an individual whose family's taxable income
did

not exceed 150 percent of the poverty level amount in the calendar year
preceding

the year in which the individual initially participated in the project.
The poverty

level amount is determined using criteria of poverty established by the
Bureau of

the Census of the U.S. Department of Commerce.

First-generation college student means (1) an individual neither of
whose natural

or adoptive parents received a baccalaureate degree; or (2) an
individual who,

prior to the age of 18, regularly resided with and received support from
only one

parent and whose supporting parent did not receive a baccalaureate
degree; or (3)

an individual who, prior to the age of 18, did not regularly reside with
or receive

support from a natural or adoptive parent.

Groups underrepresented in graduate education currently include the
following

ethnic and racial groups: Black (non-Hispanic), Hispanic, and American

Indian/Alaskan Native. (Note: The Secretary has determined as a policy
issue

that Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders may be included in
this

definition.)

Field #14---First School Enrollment Date

The "first school enrollment date" is the date the McNair participant
first enrolled in a

program of postsecondary education. Provide this information for all
students served by

the McNair project even if the student did not begin or is not currently
enrolled at your

institution. The purpose of this data field is to determine the length
of time from initial

enrollment in postsecondary education through undergraduate, graduate,
and doctoral

degree completion.

Field #16---Participant Status

For this field, please use the following definitions:

A new participant is an individual who was served by the McNair project
for the first

time during the academic year being reported.

A continuing participant is an individual who was served by the project
for the first

time in another academic year and also received project services during
the academic

year being reported. Do not count as continuing participants,
individuals for whom the

main contact from the project during this academic period was for
tracking purposes;

these individuals should be designated as prior year participants.

Note: The sum of the number of new and continuing participants should
equal the total

number of participants the projects served during the reporting period.

A prior year participant is one who received project services in a
previous academic

year but who did not receive services on a continual basis during the
academic year being

reported.

Field #18---College Grade Level (at end or spring/summer term)

Field #18 allows for the classification of the student's college grade
level at the end of the

spring/summer term. For undergraduate students who received project
services,

graduated, and enrolled in graduate school during the reporting period
(e.g., student was

an undergraduate during the 2006 fall semester, graduated at the end of
the fall semester

and enrolled in graduate school for the spring 2007 semester), please
select option "7 -- 1st

year graduate/professional (received program services as undergraduate
during the

reporting period)." Please select option "13 -- Other" for students who
are working on a

second bachelor's or second master's degree. Also select option "13 --
Other" for

students who have earned a bachelor's degree and are doing
postbaccalaureate work but

have not yet enrolled in a graduate program. This category also includes
those

participants in their fifth/final year of a 5-year combined
undergraduate/Master's degree

program.

Fields #19 and 20---Enrollment Status and Reason Not Enrolled

Field #19 allows projects to report whether or not the participant was
enrolled in

postsecondary education for at least one term during the reporting
period.

Field #20, "Reason Not Enrolled," allows projects to document the reason
the student

was not enrolled during the academic year being reported (see Field #19
for definition of

"not enrolled"). Use option #12 to report on individuals who consider
their education

completed and don't plan to enroll in a doctoral program. Use option #13
to report on

individuals who were not enrolled in the reporting year because the
individual had

attained a doctoral (Ph.D., Ed.D, etc.) or first professional degree
(JD, MD, DDS, etc.)

prior to the current reporting year (2006-07), AND the same degree had
not been

previously reported

Fields #21, 22, and 23---Highest Degree Earned, Date, and Major Field of
Study

Field #21 reflects the degree attainment information of participants.
Select the one-digit

degree code that indicates the highest degree the participant has earned
as of the end of

the academic year being reported. If no Bachelor's degree has been
earned, use option

"6", otherwise please report the highest degree each participant has
earned. If the

participant earned a degree in the academic year being reported, update
this field

appropriately. If the participant has earned more than one degree,
report only the highest

degree obtained.

Field #22, Date of Highest Degree, tracks changes in student's status
relative to degree

attainment. Use "99999999--No Bachelor's degree earned yet" for
participants that have

not yet completed a baccalaureate degree. Use "00000000---Unknown/no
response" if

you do not know the date of highest degree earned or if the data are not
available for prior

year participants.

Field #23, Major/field of graduate study, allows for reporting of the
precise major or field

of study the McNair participant undertakes in graduate school (a listing
and breakdown

of fields of graduate study are provided below). This field is only for
graduate students

who are enrolled. For all other students use option "13 - Not
Applicable."

Field #40---Eligibility (for determining program eligibility)

Field #40 -- Eligibility will provide grantees with the means to report
the exact eligibility

criterion which was used to select a student for program participation
and will also

provide the Department with information to document that the two-thirds
low-income,

first generation and one third underrepresented students requirement is
being adhered to

by individual grantees.

Field #41---Project Participation

Field #41- Project Participation will provide grantees with the means to
report whether

the student was active in the project during the academic year only, the
summer

component only or a combination of both. This will allow the Department
to determine

the level or degree of student participation during the reporting period
and will help

eliminate double reporting of students. This field should be reported
for new and

continuing students only---select option "9" for prior year
participants.

Field \# 42---Funding Source

Field \# 42 -- Funding Source will provide grantees with the means to
report the funding

source(s) used to support the activities afforded to individual students
under the McNair

program. It will also clarify why the actual student service number
reported for some

projects exceeds the Department's approved student service number of
official record.

Field \# 43---Tracking Completed

Field #43, Tracking Completed, provides grantees with the means to
report whether the

student has (1) obtained the doctoral degree (Ph.D., Ed.D., etc.) or a
first professional

degree (JD, MD, DDS, etc.), (2) has not enrolled in graduate or
undergraduate studies for

at least one term in the last five years, or (3) has been out of contact
for a period of five or

more years. Once a participant meets one of the above conditions, the
grantee is not

required to include the participant record in subsequent performance
report submissions.

Field #44---Special Circumstances

Field #44, Special Circumstances (a 254 byte text box), provides
grantees an opportunity

to explain any special conditions that may have affected its ability to
successfully or

accurately report all or some of the student data requested.

SECTION III: PRIOR EXPERIENCE

This section of the annual performance report is designed to
specifically collect

information on the achievement of the core objectives as contained in 34
CFR 647.22.

This section of the annual performance report is your opportunity to
indicate how

successfully your project has been in implementing the goals and
objectives outlined in

the prior experience criteria. You must provide information in both
percentage and

number on the level of accomplishment for your project for each item
under the prior

experience criteria.
