College Housing Direct Loans

The Department of Housing and Urban Development Assistant Secretary for Housing Federal Housing Commissioner administers the College Housing Direct Loans program (CFDA 14.101), which finances the construction, acquisition, and rehabilitation of student housing facilities at institutions of higher education through direct federal loans rather than grants.

The source provided contains no recent grant award data, recent grant opportunities, funding concentration figures, award economics, or assistance-type composition. Without access to the program's portfolio block, recent-awards block, or recent-opportunities block, this summary cannot establish whether the program has disbursed awards recently, what award cadence it maintains, typical award magnitudes, representative recent recipients, or whether solicitations are currently open.

To evaluate this program's viability for your organization, you will need to consult additional sources: the Federal Award Data System (FSRS) or USAspending.gov for recent disbursement history and award patterns; Grants.gov for current or recently closed NOFOs; and HUD's Office of Public and Indian Housing or the relevant HUD field office for program-specific guidance on eligible institutions, loan terms, and application procedures. The program's structure as a direct-loan vehicle rather than a grant mechanism also carries implications for cost-sharing, repayment obligations, and financial qualification that differ meaningfully from typical grant programs and warrant separate due diligence.
