I just want to clearyfy.. is this grant for US nationals only or can international dentist on visa can apply for the grant?

Please post all of your questions in the chat section. They will be queued and addressed at the end of the presentation.

good afternoon The links are not opening. please advise. I'm also unable to download the slides

What type of loans are forgiven federal only? Also does it only forgive remaining balance?

In the Methodology and Approach section, it asks for details about the procedures for the program. Are these procedures, and things like the structure of the contracts with faculty, going to be guided by federal regulations? Are those regulations available? An example would be the question under Resolution of Challenges about how early departures will be handled. Are there regulations about how that should be handled?

I don't know what you mean by "individuals" cannot apply.

can a dental school having accredited program apply for a foreign dentist enrolled in Advanced education program?

Is it possible to learn what schools received these funds in 2018 and 2021?

I'm also confused about individuals...please advise

Can Federally Qualified Health Centers with Dental Clinics apply?

Here is a copy of the slides for this presentation

I know what our goals are, but I can't find any place in the NOFO that actually enumerates the goals of the program.

To clarify : If a University has an agreed federal award indirect F&A rate of, say, 50%, should this be incorporated into the budget or is the the institutional F&A rate replaced by a blanket 8% of modified total direct costs for all institutions for this particular funding mechanism?

please refer to page 16 regarding indirect costs

it's 8% for this NOFO

please refer to page 21 for funding restrictions

The instructions for Priority 7 say there are details about the definitions of these classifications, but I cannot find actual details. Can you help with this?

@Ann, if you look at NOFO page 29 of edocument, it's linked there

just for clarification... this grant is not for dental offices that want to educate and train and become a loan repayment center.

what a dental assistant program

If an applicant has more than $300,000 debt are they not eligible? It sounded like that if have more than this they can't apply.

Just to be clear, people who are part of Public Service Loan Forgiveness Program can still receive award funds? (Page 11 of NOFO)

I am a full-time faculty at a small, community college. I'm unclear if I this repayment opportunity would apply to me.

I have two questions about this grant regarding Dental Hygiene Programs and would like to ask verbally, is that possible or only chat?

In order to receive funding, must we offer repayment opportunities to all dental faculty? What if we have candidates in mind?

Can you please put a link to past award recipients in the chat? The link you spoke of “data.hrsa.gov…” does not work

The question was debt of more than $300K not $300 precisely. This is an important issue.

yes! Thank!

Thank you.

This has been highly informative - many thanks to all of you! One last question from me. When will the next opportunity for an institution to apply be if March 2022 seems unfeasible?

Can you elaborate on the Maintenance on Effort and is dedicating FTE slots sufficient or are we expected to have institutional loan repayment programs as a way of MOE

For Dental Hygiene Programs some are not large in number as far as faculty. If the faculty within the program get together to work on a grant many would be excluded that this grant could benefit…..is there a solution to this? I hope this makes sense….In addition some DH programs are within a Dental School and some are free standing…if you are within a school, you have to check if you can get a different UEI or DUNS number did I hear this correctly?

If you bring in a new faculty member say in year 3 of the grant, do they only get 2 years of funding (at the end of 5 yrs) or do they continue for 5 more years to have repayment? So if I get the award starting in 2023, could I have a person that starts in 2028 and then gets funds until 2033?

Yes

Thank you!
