How does the PD review and approve the faculty applications for submission to US/ED?
The PD is able to review only applications that have been submitted to him/her by individual faculty applicants employed at his/her institution. To review an individual application he/she should consult “Item 16” on Application for Federal Education Assistance (ED 424). and click on the faculty member’s name. This will link him/her to that individual’s application. After the review of all individual applications have been completed, the PD indicates his/her approval of each application by clicking the acceptance box next to each name. Only PD-approved applications are included in the institutional submission to US/ED.
