(ii)
service as a graduate assistant, or other services related to the student's
program; and
(iii) the student's
enrollment in a particular program of study.
(4) Other educational grants or scholarships
to the extent that the combination of such awards with other benefits would
exceed the student's full cost of tuition and maintenance.
(b) The following aid shall not be considered to duplicate the purposes of tuition assistance program awards, awards for part-time study, and Vietnam veterans tuition awards, and shall therefore not serve to limit the amount of such awards:

(ii) benefits
of the Veterans' Readjustment Act of 1966 (G.I. Bill);
(iii) basic and supplemental educational

of the basic educational opportunity grant in excess of maintenance costs shall
be considered duplicative;
(iv)

(2) State
assistance. Tuition grants from the following State agencies shall not be
considered duplicative:

awards does not exceed the student's cost of tuition and maintenance.
Maintenance shall consist of charges for room, board, transportation, textbooks
and instructional material, and personal or other expenses as normally
calculated by the institution for determining student expenses in connection
with student aid programs;
(ii)
nonservice grants by the institution, or tuition credit in lieu of grants,
designed to supplement the State award and based on the student's total
financial need; and
(iii) salary,
or tuition credit in lieu of salary, representing payment solely for services
performed and not as a tuition grant or waiver associated with the student's
program of study.
