American indian tribally controlled colleges and universities (part f)

The Department of Education Office of Postsecondary Education awarded Nebraska Indian Community College $1,323,251 on October 1, 2025, under the Higher Education Institutional Aid program (CFDA 84.031), American Indian Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (Part F). The award, a Project Grant, runs through September 30, 2027, and supports institutional development activities at the college's location in Macy, Nebraska.

The program aims to help eligible colleges and universities strengthen their management and fiscal operations and to plan, develop, or implement activities—including endowment building—to strengthen academic quality. Tribally controlled colleges and universities, including those qualifying under the Tribally Controlled College or University Assistance Act of 1978 or the Equity in Educational Land Grant Status Act of 1994, are eligible applicants. Awards under the TCCUs program are allocated based on statutory formula rather than competitive review.

Nebraska Indian Community College is a 1994 Land Grant College serving Native American communities across Nebraska, registered in SAM.gov as a Minority Institution and Tribally Owned Firm.
