Travel grants for Admit Weekend?

<p>Has anyone received an e-mail regarding travel grants for admit weekend???</p>

<p>Yep. I believe it’s related to the amount of financial aid you’ll receive. (I’m getting a full ride, and so my flight is free.)</p>

<p>Yup :slight_smile: Still waiting on my finaid info though :/</p>

<p>Yes, I have.</p>

<p>When did you receive the email? I’m pretty sure I qualify for full-ride, but I got an email from financial aid saying my app is incomplete…I hope I can still get grants</p>

<p>Do internationals from obscure and expensive-to-travel-from countries ever get travel grants for the admit weekend?</p>

<p>^ Also wondering this. My interviewer phoned to say well done and mentioned the admit weekend - but I live in the UK and barely had enough money to fund train tickets to my interviews. Anyway, I’m definately not expecting anything, but it would be cool to know.</p>

<p>Also wondering the same issue - travel is going to be exorbitant.</p>

<p>i’d assume so. they haven’t put a limit on airfare for domestic travel, which can be quite expensive as well.</p>

<p>That’d be awesome, although I doubt it, as my expenses would amount to about 1500$, which would be very expensive for attending an admit weekend.</p>

<p>my expenses will be about $600 and I live in New England. Anything’s possible with an endowment like Harvard’s… :)</p>

<p>I probably shouldn’t push it, but its really tempting to ask them.</p>

<p>Yes, it is. :slight_smile: However, I guess it probably wouldn’t work out even if I somehow got such a generous grant because US Visa interview appointments in my country are unavailable until May.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Was about to say that. Even if they paid for it, getting a US visa right now will take ages(probably at least a month for me in here.) except for the countries in which you don’t have to go through a visa “process”, like the UK.</p>

<p>True, Bilguun. Didn’t remember the visa requirement.</p>
