In my mind, a student looking to make ends meet is just or more likely to not spend enough time on their studies as a student being financed by someone else.

I would stongly disagree with this. I never met a student who under performed because they worked to many hours. The students that under perform are the poor time managers and the ones who party too much or don't attend class.
That student killing themselves to be there also has the incentive to get value for the investment they are making compared to someone who is financed.
