NIGP 94969: Scholarships, Undergraduate

NIGP 94969 Scholarships, Undergraduate is an Item code under which state and local governments fund tuition assistance, grants, and educational awards for undergraduate students attending accredited postsecondary institutions. State education agencies, university systems, state boards of regents, and special-purpose scholarship districts use this code to manage direct financial aid to students and to contract with scholarship program administrators, financial-aid processors, and award-management platforms that support application intake, eligibility verification, disbursement reconciliation, and compliance reporting. The work includes merit-based and need-based scholarship distribution, dual-enrollment programs for high-school students, workforce-development scholarships tied to state labor priorities, and targeted aid for underrepresented populations.

No recent state and local contract opportunities under NIGP 94969 appear in the available source material. This Item code represents direct student aid appropriations and administrative support services rather than procurements typically posted as open RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices; activity under the code is often managed through existing education-agency systems, vendor contracts renewed via cooperative purchasing agreements, or non-competitive sole-source awards to state scholarship boards and grant-management consortia.
