SUBJECT: National SMART Grant - Revised List of Eligible Majors

SUMMARY: This letter provides a revised list of academic majors eligible for the National SMART Grants for the 2006-07 award year.

Posted on 08-25-2006

Dear Colleague:

In Dear Colleague Letter GEN-06-06, we provided the list of eligible academic majors under the National Science and Mathematics Access to Retain Talent Grant (National SMART Grant) Program. Recently, we became aware that certain majors were inadvertently omitted. This letter provides an updated list.

We have received public comments on the interim final rule that raise other issues related to the list of majors. Additional changes may be made to this list as the Department reviews those comments.

Sincerely,

James F. Manning
Acting Assistant Secretary for
Postsecondary Education
