This chapter describes the Agency’s internal guidance, policy directives, required procedures, and standards for the award and administration of USAID grants and cooperative agreements to:
- Institutions of higher education,

USAID provides assistance to U.S. or non-U.S organizations, individuals, nonprofits, and for-profit entities. Authorizing legislation (including the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended), other statutes, Government-wide directives and regulations, and Agency policies specify the eligibility requirements for individual assistance programs. The Agency has identified its corporate priorities for, and approach to, assistance in the USAID Acquisition and Assistance Strategy.
