Harvard Offers an Option for Displaced Students

<p>Harvard College will admit 25 additional students from colleges and universities that will not reopen this term due to the storm into our Visiting Undergraduate Student Program for the Fall Semester. Applications will be processed on an expedited basis. No tuition will
be charged. On-campus housing will be provided on a space-available basis and priority will be given to students rendered homeless by the storm. Students interested in being considered for the Visiting Undergraduate Program should contact Marlene Vergara Rotner in the
Office of Admissions at 617-495-9707 or <a href="mailto:vus@fas.harvard.edu">vus@fas.harvard.edu</a>.</p>

<p>The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences will admit into the Special Student Program for the Fall Semester, 25 additional students from colleges and universities that will not reopen this term due to the storm. As in the case of Visiting Undergraduates, applications will be processed rapidly, and no tuition will be charged. Students
interested in being considered by the Special Student Program should contact Sue Wood at 617-495-5392 or <a href="mailto:swood@fas.harvard.edu">swood@fas.harvard.edu</a>.</p>

<p>The Harvard Extension School, which has led Harvard's outreach efforts for more than a century, will allow enrollment in up to four of its fall courses to those students living within commuting distance who
would normally be attending college in the flooded areas. For those students who are not within commuting distance of the campus, HES will make available enrollment in any of its 36 fall online courses. In either case, HES will waive the tuition for these students and require only the $50 registration fee. Scholarships for online courses are
limited. Further, high school students from the flooded region who can come to the Boston area and live with relatives may enroll in Extension School courses that meet AP requirements, such as Introduction to Calculus, introductory science course, and introductory language
courses. Students interested in these opportunities should contact Christine Santos at 617-495-5850 or <a href="mailto:santos@hudce.harvard.edu">santos@hudce.harvard.edu</a>.</p>
