Hello! For the 2023-24 academic year, Harvard University's tuition is $54,269. In addition to tuition, you should also factor in room, board, and other fees. Here's a basic breakdown of these expenses for Harvard College, specifically:

1. Room (housing): $12,424

2. Board (meals): $7,950

3. Health services: $1,408 (insurance fees can be waived if the student can provide proof of alternative insurance)

4. Student Services Fee: $3,399

5. Student Activities Fee: $200

Taking all of these costs into account, the total annual estimated cost for Harvard University comes to around $79,650.

However, keep in mind that Harvard provides generous need-based financial aid packages for accepted students. In fact, about 55% of Harvard undergrads receive some form of need-based aid. If you're considering applying, I encourage you to use Harvard's Net Price Calculator (available on their website) to get a better estimate of the financial aid package you may receive.

Remember that financial aid can greatly reduce the cost of attending, making Harvard more accessible to many students regardless of their family's financial situation. Good luck!
