Seton Hill University

Seton Hill University (doing business as Seton Hill) is a private, non-profit educational institution based in Greensburg, Pennsylvania that acts as a prime recipient of federal grants and a single-award contractor to the Department of the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery for tuition and training services.

Seton Hill operates across two distinct federal revenue streams. As a grant recipient, the university receives project grants from civilian agencies to support educational program development and STEM student support. Recent grant work includes a $749,966 award from the National Science Foundation's Division of Undergraduate Education (CFDA 47.076) for a six-year initiative providing scholarships and mentorship to low-income biology, biochemistry, chemistry, and forensic science majors; a $500,000 award from the Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education (CFDA 84.116) for Doctor of Physical Therapy program development; and grants from the National Endowment for the Humanities supporting the National Catholic Center for Holocaust Education at the university and language and culture programs. As a federal contractor, Seton Hill holds a single-award Basic Ordering Agreement with the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery (ultimate completion date October 31, 2031) for military medical education and training tuition and fees, with delivery orders issued for annual terms; the most recent order placed June 17, 2026 carries a $100,331 ceiling for the May 2026 through May 2027 term.

Customer concentration is heavily concentrated with civilian educational agencies. The Department of the Navy's Bureau of Medicine and Surgery accounts for 14 awards (32% of the total portfolio) at $224 thousand in combined potential value, while the Department of Education's Office of Postsecondary Education holds 13 awards across multiple grant programs. Together these two agencies represent 84% of recent awards. The Department of Labor's Employment and Training Administration, the Small Business Administration, and the National Endowment for the Humanities round out the active set. Seton Hill also serves as a sub-recipient on federal training funds passed through the Pennsylvania Department of Labor & Industry for reemployment services and on COVID-19 Public Assistance grants from the Pennsylvania Emergency Management Agency.

Recent activity shows minimal volume — two awards in 2022, 2023, and 2024, one in 2025, and two in 2026. Two awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, carrying combined potential value of $100 thousand. The university's federal footprint reflects its primary mission as an educational institution: 14 awards fall under the PSC category Education/Training—Tuition/Registration/Membership Fees, and administrative education-program awards account for 12 awards across the NAICS structure.
