To start with, you need to talk to your school and let them know. They need to issue an I-20 adding on your husband, plus they would need to register him in the student database, SEVIS before he could even apply for an F2 visa. He would still need to do the interview and approval isn't guaranteed. The school is supposed to provide an estimate on how much money you would need to live together there. It's up to you to show how you're going to manage that, so it doesn't really matter who's family is going to send money, as long as someone does. your husband, of course, would not be able to work in the US on an F2.
