Eligibility
The following entities are eligible to apply to the Great Admissions Redesign:
Program Overview
For years, students and families have shouldered most of the responsibility when it comes to navigating college admissions. But over the past decade, states, systems, and institutions have started asking a different question: What if the process worked better for students from the start?
That shift has opened the door to bold new ideas. Redesigning admissions means moving away from “the way we’ve always done it” and toward a student-centered approach. Think: automated, proactive, and streamlined systems that make it easier for more students to step into higher education.
We’re excited to support that transformation. Nearly $3.3 million in grants are now available through our 2026–2027 cycle. If you’re ready to build the admissions process of the future, we invite you to apply for one of three new funding opportunities.

Overview
One of the core aims of Mellon's Higher Learning Program is to elevate the knowledge that informs fuller narratives of the human experience. Supporting the expansion and evolution of humanities disciplines through investing in the range and productivity of exceptional faculty is crucial to this objective. New Directions Fellows undertake systematic training outside their fields of specialization to acquire the competencies required for advanced cross-disciplinary research – research that goes beyond traditional boundaries and offers innovative and effective ways of bringing humanistic knowledge to bear on social challenges.
With this objective in view, Higher Learning invites nominations of highly qualified scholars in the humanities or humanistic social sciences who received their doctorates between 2013 and 2019. This by-invitation competition will provide grants of up to $300,000 over three years. We anticipate allocating up to $4 million for this call; the final number of proposals selected will depend on the number and substance of the submissions.
Eligibility
Eligible candidates will be faculty members who were awarded a doctorate in the humanities or humanistic social sciences within the last six to twelve years (2013-2019) and whose research interests call for formal training in a discipline other than the one in which they are an expert. Terminal degree holders, such as MFAs, are ineligible.
The proposed field of study must be a foray into a new area of intellectual inquiry and not just an enhancement to go further into the primary field. Language study, technical writing, or skill acquisition such as GIP mapping do not, by themselves, constitute as a new direction.

Program Description
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is designed to support highly integrated research teams of three to six Program Directors/Principal Investigators (PDs/PIs) to address ambitious and challenging research questions that are within the mission of NIGMS. Project goals should not be achievable with a collection of individual efforts or projects. Collaborative program teams are expected to accomplish goals that require considerable synergy and managed team interactions. Teams are encouraged to consider far-reaching objectives that will produce major advances in their fields.
This FOA is not intended for applications that are mainly focused on the creation, expansion, and/or maintenance of community resources, creation of new technologies, or infrastructure development.

Summary
This project will fund one technical assistance (TA) provider who will identify eight states with unmet need among communities disproportionately impacted by HIV. The TA provider will develop comprehensive asset maps (i.e., maps of services, epidemiologic data and other relevant information that provide a visual depiction of the HIV landscape) or each state. These maps will include resources and potential new partners that can be leveraged to address out of care populations. The TA provider will then plan and execute a two to three day in-person meeting for each state; all Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program (RWHAP) recipients in the state will be included in the meeting. During the meeting, the RWHAP Parts will review the asset maps and develop a plan that has concrete goals and objectives, as well as actionable steps for reaching and engaging out of care populations, and which outlines the responsible parties. The plan will directly support national HIV goals and serve as a tool to track and monitor progress toward meeting the project goals.
