hey,
i was wondering if anyone knows what does “financial independent” actually mean.

i live in Israel
i am an Israeli Army veteran (Israel Defense Forces) from 2004-2008
just got discharged
i will be 24 years old by December of 2009
for the last year of my service i have been working for the army as an telecommunication instructor.
i now work as an data-networks engineer at a company , and plan on working till the 2009 fall semester

i have been living on my own since 2003, when i graduated from high-school.

does anyone know what kind of financial aid i can apply for ?
i heard from a friend who studies at princeton ,that “financial independents” is the best option for me.

but, i couldn’t find any information about it

can anyone help ?

haven’t got my SAT scores yet (had the exam last week), but i got 780 on math IIc and 740 on physics II.
(does it even change anything in financial aid ?)
