Abstract: Titles III, V, and VII of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA), provide discretionary and formula grant programs that make competitive awards to eligible institutions of higher education and organizations (Title III, Part E) to assist these institutions with expanding their capacity to serve minority and low-income students. Grantees annually submit a performance report to demonstrate that substantial progress is being made towards meeting the objectives of their project. A Final Performance Report will be completed after the grantee completes their final performance period.
