Which description makes a student ineligible under Section 8?

Section 8 has student-status rules that limit eligibility for full-time students who are not the head of household and who don’t have dependents. A student under 24 who is attending full-time and has no dependents, is not married, and is not a veteran typically lacks any qualifying exemption (such as being married, having dependents, being a veteran, or being the head of a household). Because of that, this profile is not eligible under Section 8. The other descriptions include factors that often qualify someone for an exemption (dependents, marriage, or veteran status), or involve circumstances that don’t disqualify them under these student-specific rules.
