AGENCY: Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE), Department 
of Education.

ACTION: Notice reopening the AP Test Fee fiscal year (FY) 2009 
competition.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On October 31, 2008, we published in the Federal Register (73 
FR 64928) a notice inviting applications for the AP Test Fee FY 2009 
competition. That notice established a December 15, 2008 deadline date 
for eligible applicants to apply for funding under this program.
    In order to afford as many eligible applicants as possible an 
opportunity to receive funding under this program, we are reopening the 
AP Test Fee FY 2009 competition to eligible applicants that did not 
apply for funds by the December 15, 2008 deadline. An eligible 
applicant that submitted its application by the December 15, 2008 
deadline does not need to re-submit its application. All information in 
the October 31, 2008 notice remains the same for this notice reopening 
the competition, except for the following updates to DATES.
    Dates:
    Applications Available: January 8, 2009.
    Deadline for Transmittal of Applications: January 15, 2009.

    Note: Applications for grants under this program must be 
submitted electronically using the Governmentwide Grants.gov Apply 
site at http://www.grants.gov. For information about how to submit 
your application electronically, please refer to Electronic 
Submission of Applications in the October 31, 2008 notice (73 FR 
64929-64930). We encourage eligible applicants to submit their 
applications as soon as possible to avoid any problems with filing 
electronic applications on the last day.
