This collection instrument is
necessary because State agencies, designated by the governor of
each state, must submit an application each year funding is
available under the College Access Challenge Grant Program (CACGP).
Applicants are required by statute to include information in the
application, such as a description of the applicant's capacity to
administer the grant, a plan for using grant funds, and proposed
matching contributions. States must submit a viable plan to
increase college access and completion for low-income students and
a comprehensive outline of proposed expenditures.

This is an extension of a
