From what I understand, it's pretty tough but not impossible to get funding from this, but your circumstances would have to be bad (i.e. some really messed up stuff) and you have to be living below the student bread line. If you have are completely broke (and not because you went out drinking) then you'd have a chance but it's really for students who are in a very, very, tight spot. There's going to be a lot of applicatons this year for it so I wouldn't hold out for any miracles. Good luck in any case!
