Establishes a housing assistance program for graduate students with low income.
The Grad Student Affordable Housing Act of 2026 mandates the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development to create a program offering tenant-based assistance vouchers to eligible graduate students. These vouchers cover 80% of the fair market rental cost. Eligibility requires enrollment in a graduate or professional program at an institution of higher education and an annual income not exceeding $40,000 for single students or $80,000 for married students. The Secretary may adjust income thresholds based on cost of living.
