More details to this question:
I will be getting married to my boyfriend who is a US Citizen and I will be filing the form i-130, i-131, i-485, and i-765. While I wait for my greencard, do I qualify to get financial aid to go to university?
Filing the paperwork for permanent residence will generally not be enough to obtain financial aid from a college or university. However, colleges and universities have different packages dependent upon scholarship/financial aid, and you could inquire of the colleges and universities in which you are interested as to whether you might be eligible for some type of assistance.
