[ - ] what is your position on taking/accepting need-based help if you don't really need it? e.g. qualifying for financial aid even though you can really afford to pay the full amount? taking wic even though you can manage your groceries into your budget? 3 Replies [ Reply | Watch | More ]

If they think you qualify based on accurate data that you have provided, I think it's ok. If someone lies or fudges to qualify, that's terrible. [ Reply | More ]

do you mean if they are lying on the qualification? b/c i'm talking about a case where they are not lying, they are just managing even without the aid. [ Reply | More ]
