Harvard Makes Tuition Free for Families Earning $200K or Less
2025-03-17
Harvard University announced that tuition will be free for students from families with annual incomes of $200,000 or less, starting in the 2025-26 academic year. This expansion of financial aid will cover approximately 86% of US families, ensuring access for a broader range of students. Students from families earning $100,000 or less will also receive free room, board, and other student services. This initiative builds on Harvard's long-standing commitment to affordability, having invested over $3.6 billion in undergraduate financial aid since 2004. The move aims to create a more diverse student body, enriching the learning environment for all.
