following:
    (1) Costs for rental or purchase of any books, materials, or 
supplies required of students in the same course of study.

equipment prorated by the length of the student's fellowship over the 
reasonable life of the equipment.

    (4) Travel and per diem to professional association meetings and 
registration fees.
    (5) International travel, per diem, and registration fees to

    (6) Expenses incurred in research.
    (7) Costs of reproducing and binding of educational products.
    (c) The institutional payment must supplement and, to the extent 
practical, increase the funds that would otherwise be made available for 
the purpose of the program and, in no case, to supplant institutional 
funds currently available for fellowships.
