It is not permissible for an institution to cover any portion of the cost of lodging, including any cost associated with reserving or securing lodging. Nutritional Supplements The following questions may help in determining if providing a nutritional supplement is permissible: Can this nutritional supplement legitimately be classified as a carbohydrate booster, a fluid/electrolyte replacement drink, a protein supplement or a standard vitamin/mineral? Does this nutritional supplement list any added dietary ingredients that are not vitamins, minerals, or pure proteins? If yes, the institution may not provide the nutritional supplement to a student-athlete.
