Opportunity Information: Apply for SFOP0006693
The FY 2021 Survey of International Educational Exchange Activity in the United States is a U.S. Department of State funding opportunity issued by the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA), Office of Global Educational Programs. It seeks one qualified organization to carry out a nationwide, comprehensive statistical survey (a census-style data collection) that measures international educational exchange activity connected to U.S. higher education. The central purpose is to produce accurate, timely, and comprehensive data on global student mobility involving the United States, covering both inbound and outbound academic movement.
The project scope focuses on three core populations: (1) foreign nationals enrolled in U.S. higher education institutions, (2) foreign scholars at U.S. institutions, and (3) U.S. students studying abroad for academic credit. In practice, this means the awardee would be responsible for gathering, validating, and reporting standardized data that can be used to understand trends in international enrollment and scholarly exchange, as well as the participation of U.S. students in study abroad programs that count toward their academic programs.
A key element of the work is collaboration. The opportunity emphasizes coordination with national agencies, country representatives, and academic mobility researchers from around the world. That requirement signals that the survey is not just a domestic headcount, but a data effort meant to align with international stakeholders and accepted mobility research practices, helping ensure comparability, credibility, and broad usefulness of the results. The end product is expected to support policy, program planning, and public understanding of international educational exchange patterns.
Funding is offered through a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates that ECA expects substantial involvement during the period of performance (for example, coordination on methodology, reporting, or dissemination). The opportunity is categorized as discretionary and is listed under CFDA number 19.432. The program anticipates making a single award, with an award ceiling of $500,000.
Eligibility is limited to U.S. public and private non-profit organizations that meet the requirements of 26 USC 501(c)(3). Proposals were due by June 8, 2020, with the opportunity originally posted on April 10, 2020. The funding opportunity number is SFOP0006693, and the sponsoring agency is the Department of State, Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs.Apply for SFOP0006693
