Catalog of Federal Domestic 

Assistance Number: 19.009.

Executive Summary: The Office of 

Academic Exchange Programs of the 

Bureau of Educational and Cultural 

Affairs (ECA) announces an open 

competition for an assistance award to 

provide administrative services for the 

FY 2011 Global Undergraduate 

Exchange Program for East Asia and the 

Pacific and the Western Hemisphere 

(Global UGRAD Program for EAP and 

WHA). Public and private non-profit 

organizations meeting the provisions 

described in IRS regulation 26 CFR 

1.501(c)(3) may submit proposals to 

cooperate with the Bureau in the 

administration and implementation of 

academic exchange activities for 

promising undergraduate students from 

underrepresented sectors of the 

population in East Asia and the Pacific 

and the Western Hemisphere. For a list 

of participating countries by region, 

please see the Project Objectives, Goals, 

and Implementation document (POGI) 

that accompanies this announcement. 

Organizations must apply to administer 

the program in both geographic regions. 

Pending the availability of funds it is 

anticipated that the total amount of 

funding available for all FY 2011 

activities will be $4,200,000 and will 

involve the management of 

approximately 170 students. 

I. Funding Opportunity Description 

Authority 

Overall grant making authority for 

this program is contained in the Mutual 

Educational and Cultural Exchange Act 

of 1961, Public Law 87–256, as 

amended, also known as the FulbrightHays Act. The purpose of the Act is ‘‘to 

enable the Government of the United 

States to increase mutual understanding 

between the people of the United States 

and the people of other countries * * *; 

to strengthen the ties which unite us 

with other nations by demonstrating the 

educational and cultural interests, 

developments, and achievements of the 

people of the United States and other 

nations * * * and thus to assist in the 

development of friendly, sympathetic 

and peaceful relations between the 

United States and the other countries of 

the world.’’ The funding authority for 

the program above is provided through 

legislation. 

Purpose 

The U.S. Department of State is 

dedicated to increasing its engagement 

with undergraduate student leaders 

worldwide who represent indigenous, 

disadvantaged or underrepresented 

communities. ECA’s outreach includes 

providing merit-based programs for 

underserved sectors of society that 

increase participants’ knowledge and 

understanding of the United States. 

The principal objective of the Global 

Undergraduate Exchange Program 

(hereafter referred to as the Global 

UGRAD Program) is to provide a 

substantive exchange experience at a 

U.S. college or university to a diverse 

group of emerging student leaders from 

underrepresented sectors of the 

population in East Asia and the Pacific 

and the Western Hemisphere. The 

award recipient will ensure that 

participants are enrolled full-time in a 

non-degree course of study at U.S. 

institutions alongside American peers, 

and will provide the participants with 

opportunities to experience American 

society, institutions, and culture in and 

out of the classroom. Program 

participants will return to their home 

countries at the conclusion of the 

exchange program to complete their 

degrees in their home colleges and 

universities, and to re-integrate with 

their home societies. 

The Global UGRAD Program will 

provide no less than 170 scholarships 

for non-degree academic study at 

institutions of higher education to 

outstanding students from non-elite 

sectors. This number includes 40 one 

academic year and 50 one-semester 

scholarships for students from East Asia 

and the Pacific and 30 one academic 

year and 50 one-semester scholarships 

for students from the Western 

Hemisphere. In addition, the award 

recipient will be responsible for 

providing pre-academic intensive 

English language instruction as 

specified in the POGI. Scholarships will 

be granted to students currently 

enrolled in an undergraduate program 

in their home country, and who will 

have at least a semester of coursework 

to complete before graduating after they 

finish their Global UGRAD program and 

return to their home country. The award 

recipient will place one-semester and 

one-academic year program participants 

in non-degree programs at both U.S. 

four-year colleges and universities, and 

community colleges. 

The award recipient will enhance the 

participants’ academic education by 

developing enrichment activities that 

include having students make local 

presentations about their countries, 

performing community service, and 

taking part in internships. All 

participants will be required to return to 

their home countries immediately upon 

the conclusion of their scholarship 

program. ECA will not consider 

participant transfers from the Global 

UGRAD Program to any other U.S. 

institution or Exchange Visitor Program. 

The award recipient will make all 

university placements and serve as the 

principal liaison among Global UGRAD 

Program host institutions and ECA. 

Further details on specific program 

responsibilities can be found in the 

POGI. Interested organizations should 

read the entire Federal Register 

announcement for all information prior 

to preparing proposals. Programs must 

comply with J–1 visa regulations. Please 

refer to the Solicitation Package for 

further instructions. 

In a Cooperative Agreement, the WHA 

and EAP Program Offices of the Office 

of Academic Exchange Programs (ECA/ 

A/E) are substantially involved in 

program activities beyond routine 

monitoring. In this program ECA/A/E 

will: 

1. Participate in the design and 

direction of program activities; 

2. Make final selections of all program 

participants; 

3. Approve and provide input for all 

program agendas and timelines; 

4. Approve all student placements; 

5. Provide guidance in the execution

6. Monitor the target goal for the 

number of participants and the

speakers at workshops; 

8. Assist with SEVIS-related issues; 

9. Assist with participant 

emergencies; 

10. Provide liaison with Public Affairs 

Sections of the U.S. Embassies, binational Fulbright Commissions, and
