Having been someone who didn't manage money well, and who used to manipulate and lie to get money... I may have some perspective.

If you're able to help her financially, help where you're able - but *don't* give any money to her directly. If the school needs the money, make sure you see the bill, and write the check directly to the school - and mail it yourself. lol (I've been able to talk people into cashing checks written to others -- I can be very charming when necessary! Thankfully, I don't live that way any more.) If she's making good grades, it seems like she's taking the program seriously, and that says a lot.
