• If a parent is not in the same SNAP AG as the child, another full-time student in the same SNAP AG as the child may qualify for eligible student status if that AG member has parental control over the child and is not living with their spouse. • The student receives TANF benefits. • The student is enrolled as a result of participation in the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) Program. • The student is participating in an on-the-job training program only during the period of time the person is being trained by the employer. • The student is assigned or placed in school due to their participation in one of the following: o Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA) program; o An E&T program under the SNAP Act such as IMPACT; o An E&T program operated by a state or local government; o A program under Section 236 of the Trade Act of 1974.

DURATION OF STUDENT STATUS (S)

Once the student enrolls in an institution of higher education, such enrollment is considered to continue through normal periods of class attendance, vacation, and recess, unless the student graduates, is suspended or expelled, drops out, or does not intend to register for the next normal school term. Students not eligible during the school year will remain ineligible during vacation and recess periods unless they obtain work and/or otherwise meet the criteria applied to determine student eligibility. 3210.15.35.15

CONTINUOUS ENROLLMENT (S)

Students who fail to maintain continuous enrollment status, or who do not intend to register for the next normal school session, will lose their student status and be treated as any other individual. Continuous enrollment by a student is determined according to the school's definition of a normal school term and the student's attendance or intent to attend. For example, the school is on the semester system and considered the two-semester encompassing September through May as the normal school year.

A student in this setting maintains student status during the summer months regardless of whether he attends summer school, provided the student intends to register for the fall semester. However, if he attends summer school, but plans to skip the fall semester and register again in January, the student will lose student status during the fall semester.
