Texas Even Start Administrative Manual

June 2004, (Revised January 2008, September 2008)

Application and Funding

Electronic submission of Even Start applications was piloted in 2003. All discretionary grants in Adult Education and Even Start were moved to the eGrant format in 2004. The eGrant applications are available online through the Texas Education Agency Secure Environment (TEA SE). Applicants must request a user ID and password to access the eGrants application. Applicants complete their application online, including any attachments and submit it electronically. Paper submissions or attachments are no longer accepted. The eGrants are reviewed by a panel of readers and scored electronically. Applicants can track the status of their application by signing into the eGrant software application. The Notice of Grant Award (NOGA) is posted when an application is approved. The applicant can print a NOGA at any time. Amendments are submitted in the same manner as the application. The eGrants process reduces the paperwork burden on programs and expedites the review process.
