Please note that: Grants.gov registration involves many steps including registration on SAM  (www.sam.gov)  which may take approximately one week to complete, but could take upwards of several weeks  to complete, depending upon the completeness and accuracy of the data entered into the SAM database by an applicant. You may begin working on your application while completing the registration process, but you cannot submit an application until all of the registration steps are complete. Please note that once your SAM registration is active, it will take 24-48 hours for the information to be available in Grants.gov, and before you can submit an application through Grants.gov. For detailed information on the registration steps, please click here. [Note: Your organization will need to update its SAM registration annually.] Primary information about SAM is available at www.sam.gov. Note that the Department has transitioned from DUNS to Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) numbers. For more information, the Department of Education has provided a fact sheet, which you can access by clicking here.    Tips and Assistance for CFDA 84.031A
