FY2025–FY2025

| FY2025 | enacted | $171.0M |
Bases are separate columns and are never summed into one figure.
Education discretionary budget authority
From the OMB Public Budget Database — clean, summable, and the figure to cite for an agency total. It is the whole of Education's discretionary request, not a total of the parsed lines above, and this page never adds the two together.
What this funds

Extracted from Higher Education, p. 126. Verbatim; nothing here is paraphrased.
Contracts funded by this line
2 linked contracts. These are obligations — lifetime awarded money — and they are not comparable to the request above and are never added to it. No total is shown: an award linked to several lines is counted in full on each, so the sum would not be a fact.
| Contract | Vendor | Confidence | Obligated |
|---|---|---|---|
| 91990026F0052 last action FY2026 | LPE ASSOCIATES, LLC | Medium confidence | $1.6M |

Linked contracts are a floor, not a census. Coverage is bounded by how distinctively a program is named and, for performer links, to RDT&E and Procurement — O&M and military construction publish no performers. Budget figures are FY2027 request dollars; contract figures are obligations. The two measure different things and must never be summed together.
Ask this budget line
Answers come from the figures on this page and nothing else. These dollars are parsed from Education's Congressional Justification and are approximate — confirm anything that matters against the cited page.
