Scheme where one enrolls in classes, takes the maximum
student loan allowed for the course load, then drops all of the courses except for the minimum required to retain the loan.
The individual will usually be unable to repay the loan but in the
meantime will have a large amount of
disposable cash.
C: Did you see Jojo and her new clothes? I thought she didn't have a job...
B: Yeah, she's playing the
student loan game. Gonna fuck up her credit, but gonna
ball hard in the
meantime.
