Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants — CFDA 84.007

FSEOG obligations at $2.11 billion

USAspending.gov records $2,107,270,455.30 in obligations under CFDA 84.007. Eight thousand four hundred ninety-two awards produce that stock. A simple average is about $248,000 per award — far smaller than a typical state formula grant and consistent with campus-based aid allocations. That average is a quotient of two packet totals, not a typical student grant or a per-enrollee amount.

The assistance-listing title is FEDERAL SUPPLEMENTAL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY GRANTS. CFDA 84.007 is the identifier. Pell, Work-Study, and other Title IV listings tagged under different CFDA numbers are not mixed into the $2.11 billion. Combining those codes would invent a combined student-aid total this packet does not contain.

3,565 recipients across 58 jurisdictions

Three thousand five hundred sixty-five recipients share 8,492 awards, or about 2.4 award records per recipient on average. Splitting $2.11 billion evenly would assign about $591,000 per recipient. That pattern is a large roster of participating campuses with a couple of award-year rows each. The packet does not list the 3,565. Recipient count is the organizational headcount, not a census of students who received FSEOG.

Fifty-eight jurisdictions in the geographic count is among the widest maps in this batch. Campus-based aid follows participating institutions. Place-of-performance amounts are on the program table.

Award count is not a student-grant count

Among education listings, 84.007 is a high-volume file: 8,492 rows against 3,565 recipients. Award-year rows and amendments can inflate award count relative to unique campuses. Award count is therefore a weak proxy for “number of students aided.” Recipients (3,565) tell you how many named organizations sit on the extract; awards (8,492) tell you how many assistance rows were stored.

The packet does not report student FSEOG awards, average grants, or Pell overlap. Citing 8,492 as students would be a unit error. Keep the units straight: dollars, awards, recipients, jurisdictions.

Obligations versus campus-aid outlays

The $2.11 billion is an obligation total from USAspending.gov. Outlays — cash paid against FSEOG allocations — are not in the packet. A campus can show a large obligation stock while student disbursements follow the academic calendar. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. A remaining-balance question is an outlay question this extract does not answer.

What the 84.007 tables omit

The FSEOG hub lists award-backed obligations from USAspending.gov. It is not a student roster, not a Pell file, and not a need-analysis report. Series that never appear as assistance awards will not show up in the $2,107,270,455.30. That omission is definitional rather than a gap in the 8,492 award rows.

Place-of-performance on 58 jurisdictions is a coding field. Read the program page before treating those cells as equal shares. Recipient dollars, if shown on the hub, are still obligation amounts, not cash already paid to students.

Where the 84.007 table lives

The program page overlays these four facts. The all-programs index ranks 84.007 among other assistance listings. Agency pages show awarding-agency rollups that may include this CFDA among other education listings. For 84.007 only, start on the program page.

CFDA 84.007’s 8,492 awards spread $2,107,270,455.30 across 3,565 recipients and 58 jurisdictions. Quote award count as a record count, recipient count as the organizational headcount, and dollars as obligations from USAspending.gov. About 2.4 award records per recipient is the density story on this listing. Outlays remain a separate column. Source: USAspending.gov assistance awards. Read 84.007 as a campus-based aid book: 3,565 campuses, 8,492 awards, 58 jurisdictions, and about $248,000 averages that describe institutional allocations rather than student grants. The $2.11 billion remains an obligation stock on USAspending.gov.
