How can i get a scholarship to Harvard university?

I know i have the potenial to go there, i just would probably need a scholarship, how would i get one like what would i have to do for school and things like that, and what would harvard expect for my grades , they are almost all a 4.0 i want to attend harvard than go off to harvard law school , also just what wouldnt there expectation be for an applicant, but i dont have to worry about this for another 2 year i just want to know so im ready and know what to do

How can i get a scholarship to Harvard university?
harvard is one of those ivy leagues that meet 100% of financial need, so when you apply for financial aid, you will only have to meet the amount that the government determines your family can afford. so if you are low-income, paying the tuition at harvard could be cheaper than at schools that dont meet all your financial need, even if they cost less

Harvard University - Free Tuition





Harvard University announced over the weekend that


from now on


undergraduate students from low-income families will


pay no tuition. 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 lower half of the income


distribution, we are not doing


enough. We are not doing enough in bringing elite


higher education to


the lower half of the income distribution."





If you know of a family earning less than $60,000 a


year with an honor


student graduating from high school soon, Harvard


University wants to


pay the tuition. The prestigious university recently


announced that from


now on undergraduate students from low-income


families can go to Harvard


for free...no tuition and no student loans!





To find out more about Harvard offering free tuition


for families making


less than $60,000 a year visit Harvard's financial


aid website at:

call the school's financial aid office at (617)


495-1581.
Reply:Harvard recently made some announcements that they are giving grants (ie scholarships) rather than loans to people who apply and are accepted and need financial aid. I'm sure its written up on their website.
