Low-Income College Students' Eligibility for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program
A
large proportion of low-income college students can legitimately
qualify for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). In
many instances low-income students’ obtaining SNAP depends on the
willingness of either SNAP agencies or the students’ schools to take
steps to help the students qualify for one of the exceptions to the
disqualification rule. SNAP administrators, financial aid officers in
schools serving large numbers of low-income students, and others will
benefit from reviewing the exemptions from the student rule to ensure
that eligible low-income students receive the food assistance they need.
