Schools LOOOOOVE that damn FAFSA. It's like their version of crack.

As I understand it, each person is allocated a certain $ amount in their lifetime that, if they are sufficiently poor, they can use towards studies for a Bachelor degree? Or is it something not everyone is eligible for?

There are federal and state grants which are income based. There's also federal and private student loans which are not income based. There are limits on the government programs, but private loans are a way around that. That's what med and law students do. I know doctors who owed well over $100,000 once they became doctors.
