Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006714
The FY 2020 Global Undergraduate Exchange Program in Pakistan (Funding Opportunity Number SFOP0006714) is a U.S. Department of State initiative, administered through the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), Office of Academic Exchange Programs. The opportunity is a discretionary federal grant competition to select one organization to run and manage an academic exchange program that brings undergraduate students from Pakistan to participate in study and related programming. The emphasis is on students from underrepresented sectors in Pakistan, meaning the program is intended to expand access to international educational experiences for individuals who might not typically have these opportunities.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally means the Department of State expects to be actively involved in the program during implementation (for example, through collaboration, approvals, or ongoing coordination) rather than simply providing funds and stepping back. The total anticipated funding for administrative and program costs is up to $4,022,247, contingent on the availability of funds, with one award expected. The funding source is Economic Support Funds (ESF) tied to FY 2019/FY 2020 appropriations that ECA anticipated would be transferred from USAID to ECA for obligation before the funds expire on September 30, 2020. In practical terms, applicants would be expected to propose a program design and budget that can be executed within the required funding and timing constraints associated with those fiscal-year funds.
Eligible applicants include U.S. public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and U.S. nonprofit organizations with IRS 501(c)(3) status (including nonprofits that are not institutions of higher education). The opportunity listing also references an "Others" eligibility category with additional details in the full announcement, but the core requirement highlighted is that applicants must be U.S.-based entities that meet the relevant eligibility rules, particularly the 501(c)(3) requirement for nonprofits. The program falls under CFDA number 19.009 and is categorized under a general "Other" funding activity classification as described in the official notice.
The competition opened on April 7, 2020, with an original application deadline of June 5, 2020. Organizations applying would be proposing to organize and carry out the full set of exchange activities, which typically includes recruitment and selection support, academic placement and advising, participant support services, orientation and enrichment programming, and overall program administration and compliance. The overarching goal is to operate a structured undergraduate exchange experience that advances educational and cultural exchange objectives while ensuring that students from underrepresented communities in Pakistan are meaningfully reached and supported.Apply for SFOP0006714
