Hey guys, I know this might sound like a trivial question, but I'm curious about Harvard's student body size. I prefer a college with a smaller, tight-knit community over a large campus. Can anyone tell me how many students attend Harvard?
Sure thing! Harvard University has a relatively smaller student body compared to many public universities. There are approximately 7,110 undergraduate students and about 14,168 graduate students, making a total of around 21,278 students. So, while not as small as some liberal arts colleges, Harvard does manage to have a more tight-knit community than many large state schools. In terms of class sizes, Harvard also offers a good mix of smaller discussion-based classes and larger lecture-style courses, allowing students to interact closely with both their peers and professors.
