## Abstract

This rule makes a conforming amendment to HUD's regulation that restricts individuals enrolled in an institution of higher education and who meet certain other requirements from receiving assistance under section 8 of the U.S. Housing Act of 1937. That regulation was required by statute to be promulgated in 2005, and the statute was subsequently amended to exempt from this restriction students with disabilities who were receiving section 8 assistance as of November 30, 2005.
