Is this risky move a smart way to pay for BS?

If you read that correctly, you’d see that I said from a trust fund NOT set up by my parents, but by my grandparents, meaning it isn’t their money.

They say that they could pay if it meant getting the money back. To pay this though, they’d have to be very frugal and would still be a stretch to pay because of my brother’s college tuition.

The trust fund isn’t in me, or my parents’ names which means that we can’t put it in our application. And those two homes were inherited from family.

Yes, I do know this is true, but this would be the only way for me to have “full-pay privilege” especially since we might not be able to qualify for FA.
