Harvard Full-Paid Tuition Announcement
Harvard is offering free tuition for students that have a family income below $40,000. If you are a mentor or have nieces and nephews who might be interested, please give them this information. If you know any one/family earning less than $40K with a brilliant child near ready for college, please pass this along.
In making the announcement, Harvard's president Lawrence H. Summers said, When only 10 percent of the students in Elite higher education come from families in the lower half of the income distribution, we are not doing enough. If you know of a family earning less than $40,000 a year with an honor student graduating from high school soon, Harvard University wants to pay the tuition.
From now on undergraduate students from low-income families can go to Harvard for free...no tuition and no student loans!
