1890 payment obligations at $437.3M
USAspending.gov records $437,253,767.11 in obligations under CFDA 10.205. Those 115 awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $3.80 million per award. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical award and not a unit cost for students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed. Other NIFA 1862 or 1890 land-grant listings under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $437,253,767.11.
The assistance-listing title is PAYMENTS TO 1890 LAND-GRANT COLLEGES AND TUSKEGEE UNIVERSITY. CFDA 10.205 is the identifier. Read the $437.3M headline — $437,253,767.11 in the award file — as the obligation book tagged 10.205 only. USAspending.gov assistance awards are the source. This page does not convert obligations into outlays or into a count of students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed.
115 awards on 19 land-grant colleges
19 recipients share 115 awards. That is about 6.1 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $437,253,767.11 evenly would assign about $23.01 million per recipient. That density is a packet quotient, not a typical grant size and not a cost per unit of students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed. The packet does not list the 19 named organizations. Read $437,253,767.11 only against CFDA 10.205.
Eighteen jurisdictions describe where the 1890 campuses and Tuskegee are coded. Payment dollars follow those named institutions, not equal shares of all land-grant universities. Place-of-performance amounts, if shown, live on the program table. Recipient count is organizational, not a census of students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed. A simple average is about $3.80 million per award. Combining 10.205 with other NIFA 1862 or 1890 land-grant listings under different CFDA numbers would invent a combined total this packet does not contain.
Award rows are not an enrollment census
Among assistance listings, 10.205 is a defined-institution payment file: 115 awards against 19 named colleges in 18 jurisdictions. Award count is a weak proxy for “number of projects” and a worse proxy for students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed. The recipient field (19 recipients) tells you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (115) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.
The packet does not report students enrolled, research papers published, or extension visits completed. Citing 115 as that unit would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions. The $437,253,767.11 stock is the obligation figure from USAspending.gov. Nineteen recipients in 18 jurisdictions matches a defined 1890-campus set.
Obligations versus 1890-payment outlays
The $437,253,767.11 is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against Payments to 1890 Land-Grant Colleges and Tuskegee University awards — are not in the packet. A file can show a large obligation stock while draws, reimbursements, or closeouts follow a different schedule. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. Treasury outlays are a separate series.

What the 10.205 tables omit
Geographic coding covers 18 jurisdictions. Eighteen jurisdictions describe where the 1890 campuses and Tuskegee are coded. Payment dollars follow those named institutions, not equal shares of all land-grant universities. It is not an enrollment dashboard, not a 1862 land-grant total, and not a count of every extension agent. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $437,253,767.11.
Place-of-performance on 18 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares of Payments to 1890 Land-Grant Colleges and Tuskegee University funding. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid.
