Bureau of ECA announces 2022 EducationUSA Advising Services

Deadline: 02-Jul-21

The Educational Information and Resources Branch or EducationUSA Branch (ECA/A/S/A) in the Office of Global Educational Programs of the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) has announce a NOFO for up to three cooperative agreements to administer FY 2022 EducationUSA Advising Services, pending the availability of FY 2022 funds.

EducationUSA is the U.S. Department of State’s global network of educational advising centers that work with prospective international students in more than 175 countries to promote U.S. higher education abroad. Advisers at more than 430 EducationUSA centers provide accurate, comprehensive, and current information about the diversity of U.S. higher education opportunities, guiding prospective students to find the institution that best fits their needs. In addition, the EducationUSA network assists accredited U.S. institutions of higher education institutions (HEIs) to help institutional leaders meet their campus internationalization goals, including strategic guidance to U.S. institutions regarding relevant international higher education systems and partners to enhance their international networks and potential partnerships.
The EducationUSA network, in collaboration with ECA, also provides information on the U.S. higher education system to foreign governments and institutions, and encourages study abroad by Americans to expand their understanding of foreign cultures, communities, and countries.
With the goal of increasing student mobility between the United States and other countries through EducationUSA advising, this NOFO will result in up to three cooperative agreements:
