Opportunity Information: Apply for USDA NIFA TGP 007452
The New Beginnings for Tribal Students program is a competitive federal grant opportunity run by the U.S. Department of Agriculture through the National Institute of Food and Agriculture (USDA NIFA). Its purpose is to help land-grant colleges and universities provide clear, identifiable support that is specifically targeted to Tribal students. The central goal is to strengthen student success by improving retention and graduation outcomes for Tribal students enrolled at eligible land-grant institutions, using strategies and services that directly address barriers to access, persistence, and completion.
Funding is awarded as discretionary grants under CFDA number 10.527, and the opportunity was released under funding opportunity number USDA NIFA TGP 007452. While the eligibility field is summarized as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," the narrative description makes it clear the intended applicants are land-grant colleges and universities. The program expects to make around 10 awards, with an award ceiling of up to $500,000, and it also notes that the maximum one state can receive is $500,000 per year, which effectively caps the annual amount available per state.
Grant funds can be used for a range of student-focused supports and pathways that help Tribal students enter, stay in, and complete programs at land-grant colleges and universities. Allowable and highlighted uses include building or strengthening articulation agreements, including connections with 1994 land-grant institutions and dual credit programs, which can make it easier for students to move from high school or Tribal college coursework into degree programs without losing credits. The program also supports recruiting efforts, as well as assistance with tuition and related fees, recognizing that direct educational costs are often a major obstacle to enrollment and continued attendance. In addition, the opportunity emphasizes experiential learning, which may include hands-on learning opportunities that build career readiness and engagement, as well as comprehensive student services such as tutoring, counseling, academic advising, and related supports that have a measurable impact on retention and degree completion.
Overall, the opportunity is designed to help land-grant institutions put concrete, trackable resources in place for Tribal students, with the expectation that these investments translate into better academic persistence, stronger student support systems, and higher graduation rates. The original timeline for this specific posting shows a creation date of April 28, 2020, with an original closing date of June 12, 2020, indicating this is a particular funding cycle announcement, even though the program concept may appear in future cycles under updated notices.Apply for USDA NIFA TGP 007452
