 Not gonna say it happens a lot, but it does happen. My understanding is that with the ivy leagues, if you get accepted, they will make sure you can afford to go there.
There are also a lot of schools that offer free tuition and other scholarships based on GPA/Test Scores.

all i can say is just do the research, their is all kind of ways to cut costs and help out with tuition.
