Want to Attend Harvard?

Harvard University has very generous financial aid support for all students who qualify on the basis of need. On a very positive note, families with incomes below $60,000 need not contribute to the cost of sending their children to Harvard. Further, families with incomes up to $180,000 with assets typical for the income level need not pay more than 10 percent of their incomes. The hardest part is being accepted. No student should be discouraged from applying to Harvard because of financial concerns.  The Financial Aid Office is always eager to work with talented students to make sure they receive the financial support that will make a Harvard education possible for them.  For more information, please visit the financial aid web site: http://www.fao.fas.harvard.edu/, or call 617 495 1581.

I was also forwarded an email that stated Harvard has a large science endowment for African American (High School Juniors/Seniors) who are interested in majoring in the sciences, Chemistry, Biology, Physics etc. Those interested should contact Professor Gregg Tucci at tucci@fas.harvard.edu or 617-496-4668. Please let me know if this is not true, as I have not vetted this particular information.
