Institutions participating in the Federal Work-Study (FWS) and Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant (FSEOG) programs are normally required to provide a non-federal share under each program. Certain institutions, however, are eligible for a waiver of those requirements under 34 CFR 675.26(d) of the FWS regulations and 34 CFR 676.21(b) of the FSEOG regulations. To receive this waiver of the FWS and FSEOG non-federal share requirement, an institution must be designated by the Department of Education’s Office of Postsecondary Education Institutional Service (OPE/IS) as an eligible Title III or Title V institution under the Higher Education Act of 1965. The deadline to request such designation is Feb. 27, 2023. Read more about it here.
