Harvard's
Tuition Announcement
Harvard
President Lawrence H. Summers announced in February
2004 a major new initiative designed to encourage talented
students from families of low and moderate income to
attend Harvard College. While the new initiative has
four major components, including recruitment, admissions,
and a summer academic program designed to prepare talented
students from financially disadvantaged backgrounds
for college, the financial aid component increases aid
for students from low and moderate income families.
Parents in families with incomes of less than $40,000
will no longer be expected to contribute to the cost
of attending Harvard for their children. In addition,
Harvard will reduce the contributions expected of families
with incomes between $40,000 and $60,000.
Thus,
if you know of a family earning less than $40,000 a
year with an honor student graduating from high school
soon, Harvard University wants to pay the tuition. To
find out more information about Harvard's free tuition
initiative, please visit Harvard's financial aid web
site at http://adm-is.fas.harvard.edu/FAO/index.htm
or call the school's financial aid office at (617) 495-1581.
