The Office of Indian Education (OIE)

are evaluated on the basis of how well an applicant addresses the
selection criteria, and are used to determine applicant eligibility
and amount of award for projects selected for funding. The
selection criteria used for the Demonstration Grant program include
general selection criteria from 34 CFR 75.210 and selection
criteria based on regulatory requirements in 34 CFR part 263, in
accordance with 34 CFR 75.209(a). Eligible applicants submit the
information to describe the project for which funding is requested.
The information provided by the applicant addresses the selection
criteria for the program. The application is evaluated through a
peer review process and an application's score is used to determine
its ranking and selection for funding.

This is an extension of a
previously approved information collection request. In previous
years, we received more applications that originally anticipated
for this program. Therefore, the adjustment reflects an increase to
the number of responses we anticipate receiving, and do not impose
increase burden on an individual respondent. The total burden and
responses are 4,000 hours and 100 responses respectively.
