Getting rid of the work study requirement?

Hi all!
I wish to get rid of the work study req by either acquiring a scholarship or taking out loans. Do you think it is worth it? The Harvard website lists parent employer as a source of possible sponsorship, but do you think an older sibling’s employer could also be an acceptable sponsor?

If your sibling’s employer is willing to subsidize you, then take it. Harvard won’t care where the money comes from, if that’s what you’re asking.
