i get paid £80 a term at college cos my mother is single.
Quote: from AngEyes00 at 7:05 am on Mar. 9, 2004 I have a friend who's parents are divorced. His dad is LOADED, but his mom's not so. She's just a RN and lives in a crappy little apartment. Anyway, since she really had full custody of him, he got to file the FAFSA under her, even though his dad was going to pay for him to go to school anyway. Well, he got TONS of financial aid, he practically goes for free, and then his dad picked up the rest of it. Pretty sweet deal.thats just wrong

The school doesn't know that the dad was going to pay, if they did then they probably wouldn't have given him money. There are a lot of people in that situation who's father wouldn't pay for them, so they can't do everything case-by-case, so stuff like that ends up happening to some lucky people.
