Furthermore, a current title III, Part A or title V program grantee may not give up its grant to receive a grant under ANNH, as described in 34 CFR 607.2(g)(1).An eligible IHE that is not a current grantee under the above-cited programs may apply for a FY 2024 grant under all title III, part A programs for which it is eligible, as well as receive consideration for a grant under the HSI program.
