Best Answer

It depends on who the insurance policy has named as a beneficiary. If the student is listed as the beneficiary then they can spend it however they like. If the beneficiary is a trust then the trust may have stipulations as to how it can be spent and the trustee would then be charged with spending it correctly. All of this would be spelled out in a will or trust.
