Graduate Assistance in Areas of National Need (GAANN) Program: Purpose of Program: GAANN provides fellowships in areas of national need to assist graduate students with excellent academic records who demonstrate financial need and plan to pursue the highest degree available in their course of study. Eligible Applicants: Academic departments of institutions of higher education that meet the requirements in 34 CFR 648.2. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: GAANN Stipend Level: The Secretary will determine the GAANN fellowship stipend for the academic year 2003-2004 based on the level of support provided by the National Science Foundation (NSF) graduate fellowships as of February 1, 2003, except that the amount will be adjusted as necessary so as not to exceed the GAANN fellow's demonstrated level of financial need. GAANN Institutional Payment: The Secretary will determine the institutional payment for the academic year 2003-2004 by adjusting the previous academic year institutional payment, which was calculated to be $11,031 per fellow, by the U.S. Department of Labor's Consumer Price Index for the 2002 calendar year.
