Answer 1

Go for it! Sounds like a great idea..just be careful of student loans as it seems that they never ever go away!

Answer 2

Fill out your FAFSA online for free at www.fafsa.ed.gov and shop around at all local schools.  As you have lost your job you will then need to speak to the finacial aid officers to inform them that your situation is different now and your tax returns are no longer a good indicator of financial status and see what you get.  In addition to Pell Grants there are a few states that offer nice grants for their students.
