Educational Grants Management System Home

Revised allocations will trigger application amendment/revision.
Please note that the system will automatically trigger an application revision as soon as allocation amounts are revised in the eGMS. This is true for all approved applications. In cases when the application is in progress, users won't be able to submit it to the WDE until they budget all funds, including new allocation.

Detailed clarification on the Title II-A 2024-2025 grant applications regarding utilizing Title II-A funds for literacy professional development is available on the eGMS support site here. 

If you are not receiving notifications or bulk emails sent via eGMS, please reach out to your IT department and ask them to whitelist noreply@egrantsmanagement.com.
Always remember to check your Spam folder for missing emails as well.

All questions regarding this system should be submitted via Feedback Form, as follows:
Go to Contact WDE option on the left-hand side, fill out the form and submit it to the WDE. You do not have to be a current user (have a login/password) in order to use it.
Please do not email directly to the eGMS Program Manager; your email will go to the back of the queue and will not be addressed as quickly as the inquiries submitted via Feedback Form.
Contact individual program managers with questions specific to their grant applications.
They were the ones who designed those applications and were also involved in the implementation process from the very beginning, thus, they are best equipped to assist you with the specifics of their grants.

Guidelines for submitting cash requests in eGMS are now available. For more information, please see LEA Resources section below.
Important: Please remember that in the new eGMS, you can only submit one cash request per program for each batch.
As soon as that cash request is processed through WOLFS, you can then submit another cash request for that program.

If you find yourself in need of adding a new user or changing info for an existing one, kindly follow the steps below.
Note: There is only one person per LEA who has the capacity to manage this form. If you are not that person, please contact them with your request.
1. From the left-side menu, go to Application Supplement -> Application Supplements.
2. Click on eGMS User Request Form.
3. Change Status from Application Supplement Not Started to Application Supplement Started.
4. Fill out all sections of the eGMS User Request Form.
5. Change Status from Application Supplement Started to Application Supplement Completed. By doing so, you will effectively submit the form to the WDE for further processing.

As soon as you change the status of your Application or Application Supplement to Completed, the system sends it to the Superintendent/Authorized Representative for review and submission to the WDE. Once they change the status to LEA Superintendent/Authorized Representative Approved, the system notifies all relevant parties at the WDE right away. Please note that you do not need to let us know about your submission in a separate email.
LEAs are notified as soon as the reviewer makes a decision (Approved, Pending/Need more information, Rejected).
This applies to all Application Supplements, including SAM ID Verifications and eGMS User Request Forms, they will be reviewed within two business days after their submission.
Reach out to us if it has been over two business days, and you still haven't heard back from us with either an approval or a rejection. If it hasn't been that long - we are still working on your submission.
