Hey guys! Just wondering, does Harvard University offer a lower tuition rate for in-state students? It's tricky to find solid info online. Thanks for any info!
Harvard University does not differentiate tuition rates based on in-state or out-of-state status because it is a private institution, not a public one. In private schools, the tuition cost is the same for all students, regardless of their residency. However, Harvard does have a very generous financial aid policy. For families who earn less than $85,000 per year, you can attend Harvard and pay nothing towards the cost of attendance. Families who earn between $85,000 and $150,000 per year will pay between 0 and 10% of their annual income. As always, the final amount can vary based on the individual circumstances of your family, but this gives you a good starting point for estimation.
