today someone told me that theyre are going to college for $8.00. i find this to be outrageously wrong. i am going to pay about $12,000 for my college. she says she got a lot of scholarships and with the fafsa loans, she will only have to pay 8 bucks. do you think she was misled? or if this possible?

It's possible, though it depends on exactly what she's saying. You can get enough scholarships to where you dont have to pay for anything... some will pay tuition, books, housing and everything. It sounds like she got enough to cover some of her tuition.
Then you can get enough from loans to cover everything too, depending on how bad off your and your family's financial standing is.
So if she's saying she's going to have to pay $8, that probably means that she got enough from the scholarships and loans to cover her tuition, except for the $8, for a semester.
If she's saying she's ONLY going to pay $8 EVER, then she's either full of crap or doesnt know how student loans work (thinking she doesnt have to pay them back???). But I'm sure that her FAFSA loans are not $8.
