AAU, together with COGR, APLU, and AAMC, sent a letter to the Office of Management and Budget urging the office to extend until September 30 the flexibilities outlined in the OMB memo M-20-17, “Administrative Relief for Recipients and Applicants of Federal Financial Assistance Directly Impacted by the Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) due to Loss of Operations.” The organizations say that extending the memo to coincide with the end of the federal fiscal year would allow the office to reassess the needs of institutions as they respond to COVID-19.
