Well, the only thing I know is that all Universities vary with regards to residency.

Unless I am mistaken, then if she is married, she is considered an Independent Student. You might want her to call the fin aid number on the fafsa web site to double check that because I could be wrong.

If she is currently a Community College student, then she might desire to finish an AA or AS because you can save two years worth of University tuition that way. There is a transfer forum on this site as well as an international student forum where you can ask other things.
