assistance than is provided to nonhandicapped persons, limit eligibility 

for assistance, or otherwise discriminate or (ii) assist any entity or 

person that provides assistance to any of the recipient's students in a 

manner that discriminates against qualified handicapped persons on the 

basis of handicap.

scholarships, fellowships, or other forms of financial assistance

and other forms of financial assistance is not discriminatory on the 

basis of handicap.

that helps its students to obtain employment shall assure itself that 

the employment opportunities it helps to make available to students are, 

as a whole, made available in a manner that would not violate subpart B 

if they were provided by the recipient.

    (c) Employment of students by recipients. A recipient that employs 

any of its students may not do so in a manner that violates subpart B.
