Perhaps the particular training activity is usually no longer allowed; however, the exception would be as long as it was agreed to in writing, and since it was agreed to in writing via e-mail, this is how the exception was grandfathered in.

Reference information:
Additionally, the no-cap undergraduate degree program will be discontinued.
All participants currently enrolled in a degree program will be grandfathered
under the existing “no-cap” benefit. Going forward, both the undergraduate
degree and graduate degree would be covered up to a maximum annual cap of
$5,250.

Please note that some USC Graduate School and NGP requirements, rules, and options might change from time to time as we work to improve the quality of the Program. We will inform you of any such changes promptly and clearly. Major rule changes may be ‘grandfathered’ at the discretion of the NGP Director and Executive Committee. Changes will not add further obstacles to your success in obtaining your PhD in Neuroscience at USC.
