I want to study in Harvard college with financial aid or scholarship

Paying for College

<p>I really want to study in Harvard college. So could anyone tell me what i should do?</p>

<p>^ haha. That's the golden question, isn't it?</p>

<p>I hope you realize that Harvard is one of the premier universities in the world. Getting in is almost statistically impossible and completely unpredictable. They turn down tons of valedictorians with 2400s and sparkling extracurriculars...because they can. </p>

<p>There's no "formula" for getting in.</p>

<p>However, if you're asking specifically about money, Harvard is practically free. If you make under $60 grand a year, it's literally free. If you make under $180 grand, you're not going to pay more than 10% of your income, respectively. They don't give any merit or athletic scholaships. None. It's all need-based aid. Luckily, that need-based aid is pretty damn good.</p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Typically, successful Harvard applicants have 1500 out of 1600 or 2250 out of 2400 SATs, near perfect grades, special talents or awards at the state or national level, compelling essays, and a fair amount of luck. But as Hookem says, cost should not be a barrier.</p>

<p>Win a Nobel Prize or donate a couple million dollars to the school for a new building. </p>

<p>Just do the best you can..submit your application, and hope for the best. They accept about 10% of applicants...90% do not get accepted. If you get accepted, odds are that your financial aid will be sufficient for you to attend.</p>
