Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants in FY2025
USAspending.gov records $1,052,175,276.57 in obligations for CFDA 84.007, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants, in fiscal year 2025, across 4,200 awards. Four thousand two hundred records is a high-count campus-aid file, not a handful of state vehicles. The implied mean is about $250,517.92 per award — a packet quotient, not a typical student award. The same program’s published extract is $2,107,270,455.30 on 8,492 awards, so FY2025 is roughly half the published book by dollars.
Key figures
- CFDA 84.007 in FY2025: $1,052,175,276.57 across 4,200 awards.
- Program-wide: $2,107,270,455.30 on 8,492 awards.
- Implied mean about $250,518 per record — a campus allocation texture, not a student grant.

Campus-aid code 84.007 crossed with FY2025
CFDA 84.007 and fiscal year 2025 meet here: 4,200 records summing to $1,052,175,276.57. An FSEOG award coded to another year is out. A FY2025 award under a different student-aid CFDA is out even if the campus is the same. This packet does not name colleges, students, or Expected Family Contribution bands. Unique recipients are unpublished.
Program-wide 8,492 awards totaling $2,107,270,455.30 remain the parent. Open CFDA 84.007 for that book, FY2025 federal spending for the year hub, All programs for sibling codes, and All spending ties for other pairs. Do not add those pages into $1,052,175,276.57.
4,200 actions, smaller mean dollars
Dividing $1,052,175,276.57 by 4,200 yields about $250,517.92. Campus-based aid often posts one institutional allocation per school plus revisions, which inflates the award count relative to a formula-to-states program. 4,200 is not 4,200 students and not 4,200 named contractors. Do not invent university names.
FY2025’s 4,200 records versus 8,492 program-wide is a count comparison only. It is not a ranking of college access. Correlation is not causation: a high award count does not prove unmet need rose.
Not a Pell census or a student roster
$1,052,175,276.57 does not measure FSEOG recipients, average student grants, or completion rates. Pell is a different CFDA. This cell sums obligations with 84.007 and a FY2025 tag. Education advice is outside this page. Place-of-performance campuses are not listed here.
Commitments versus cash to students
Obligations are not outlays. $1,052,175,276.57 can include amounts that campuses draw later. Citing it as money already in student accounts over-reads the field. This packet has no disbursement total and no student-level file.
Keep both keys. Dropping the year turns the figure into the program book; dropping the CFDA turns it into a year hub that includes unrelated aid.
Citing FSEOG in FY2025
Cite USAspending.gov: Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants (CFDA 84.007) obligated $1,052,175,276.57 on 4,200 awards in FY2025. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” The compact $1.05 billion is the same cell rounded. Prefer CFDA 84.007 if the program table refreshed after an ingest.
FY2025 federal spending still includes every other program tagged to that year. All programs lists sibling codes. All spending ties indexes other pairs. A later ingest can restate $1,052,175,276.57 without changing the join definition.
Campus allocations versus student-level aid folklore
Four thousand two hundred awards totaling $1,052,175,276.57 is the opposite texture from a 52-row formula file: many institutional instruments, implied mean near $250,517.92. That average is an allocation-sized quotient, not a typical student FSEOG award, which this packet does not publish. Unique recipients are unpublished, so 4,200 is not 4,200 colleges and not 4,200 students. Pell Grants use a different CFDA. Expected Family Contribution bands, completion rates, and campus names are unpublished. This page does not invent universities and does not offer enrollment advice. Program-wide $2,107,270,455.30 on 8,492 awards is the parent book.
Keep the join as CFDA 84.007 × FY2025. Obligations are not outlays; campuses may draw later. The compact $1.05 billion is the same cell rounded. CFDA 84.007, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, and All spending ties stay the four hrefs. FY2025 federal spending includes unrelated student-aid and non-aid codes; do not treat it as an FSEOG year total. If the program hub later shows a different yearlyTrend row, rewrite the dollar sentence and leave the pair definition alone. Do not blend this cell with FEC occupation labels that say student or teacher.
Campus-based aid is easy to misread as a student roster. $1,052,175,276.57 on 4,200 records remains an institutional-obligation cell for CFDA 84.007 in FY2025. Drawdowns, student disbursements, and Pell overlap are unpublished. Keep the four hrefs as hubs: CFDA 84.007, FY2025 federal spending, All programs, All spending ties. Do not invent university names.
