The grant funding is projected to be released in a competitive joint solicitation in the summer of 2022.

OSHE in collaboration with the New Jersey Educational Facilities Authority (“NJEFA”) pursuant to a Memorandum of Understanding, administers these Programs. The NJEFA issues the bonds that fund these Programs.
