Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0008008
The FY 2022 Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program grant opportunity (SFOP0008008) is a U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) funding competition to select a single organization to manage and administer the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowship Program, which is part of the broader Fulbright exchange portfolio. The core purpose of the award is not to fund individual fellows directly through separate sub-awards, but to support an implementing partner that can run the program on ECA's behalf, handling the operational, administrative, and programmatic work needed to carry out the fellowship in alignment with U.S. public diplomacy and international educational exchange goals.
This opportunity is offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement, meaning ECA expects to have substantial involvement in the execution of the program rather than simply providing funds with minimal oversight. The activity category is listed as "Other" (with further clarification referenced in the full announcement), and the program is associated with CFDA number 19.010. Only one award is expected to be made under this competition, so proposals are competing for a single implementing role for the entire program cycle covered by the agreement period.
Eligible applicants include U.S. public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, and U.S. nonprofit organizations that hold 501(c)(3) status with the IRS (as described in 26 USC 501(c)(3)), along with other eligible entities as further detailed in the complete announcement. A key compliance rule is that each applicant may submit only one proposal. If an organization submits multiple proposals, all of its submissions will be deemed ineligible and removed from consideration, which makes internal coordination essential for any institution with multiple departments or affiliated units that might otherwise try to apply separately.
The funding level is presented as an upper limit rather than a guaranteed amount. Applicants are instructed to develop a budget not to exceed $10,765,000, but ECA notes that the final FY2022 amount available for the program had not been determined at the time of the announcement and would depend on the availability of appropriated funds. The award ceiling is therefore best read as a cap for budgeting purposes, with the actual award amount contingent on federal funding decisions.
The anticipated performance period spans up to five years, with an intended start date of October 1, 2021 and an end date of September 30, 2026, again subject to the availability of FY2022 funds. This multi-year timeline signals that the selected organization would be responsible for sustaining program operations across multiple fellowship cohorts and annual cycles, maintaining consistent administrative capacity, and supporting long-term planning and continuity of the Humphrey Fellowship model.
Important dates from the notice include a creation date of April 19, 2021 and an original application closing date of June 30, 2021. Organizations interested in competing would need to have prepared their proposals by that deadline and should have relied on the full announcement for the detailed scope of work, required components, evaluation criteria, and any specific program expectations not included in the summary description.Apply for SFOP0008008
