Actually, when it comes to training grants for the Department of Education,
there are no citizenship requirements that I have found.  The program
guidelines of the ones I have seen don't address it.  I have asked program
officers and grants management officials, and been told that unless it's
specifically addressed in the guidelines and not allowed, go ahead.  And
I've never seen it addressed for DofEd.
