Default Re: My GF\'s parents are scumbags thus far (Fin. Aid)

To be independent you have to:

Be 24 or older
Have Graduated with a 4 year degree
Have served in the Military
Be an orphan or ward of the court
Be married

However, if any of the above are met she'll lose health insurance if she's on her parents plan. Most state schools can be enrolled in for less than $10k a year, just tell her to get a job. If she lvied on her own loans or not she'd need a job anyway.
