If I said that the cost of Harvard University is less than Shang Mississippi State University, many people will think that I am deliberately sensational, but I have this for many families.
Harvard University and other famous universities have been committed to the economic barriers to college in college in the low-income families for many years. Harvard University claims that it can guarantee that children from any family can serve at Harvard University. In March 2004, the principal of Harvard University announced that if a student's family annual income is less than $ 40,000, Harvard University will provide the full cost of the University of Reading University, including tuition, living expenses, and even two time to go home. In this year, the full secondary support for a North American student is about $ 42450 per year. Foreign students will increase the aid amount based on their home tolls, and the full range of students from China is $ 45,000.
If the family annual income is higher than $ 40,000, Harvard University will ask parents to pay a part of the students in the expense of income. But if the family annual income is below $ 80,000, the family affordable part is generally no more than $ 5,000. Even if the family has reached 160,000 US dollars, Harvard University still provides partial assistance. In this way, Harvard University's tuition fee is $ 42450 a year (including living expenses), in fact, for most families, children Harvard is cheaper than on public universities. Only a wealthy family will need to pay a full tuition fee.
Harvard University has strictly enforced the policy of NEED-BLIND when admitting students, ie, regardless of the family economy, only according to the studies and quality. Fully reflect the purpose of Harvard University only. After the admission, when considering the breeding fund, strictly perform the NEED-BASED policy, that is, according to the family income, it is calculated to help the school, and no matter the students' academic and expertise. That is to say, Harvard University only helps literacy, no scholarship. This is very different from other second school universities. In order to compete for students with the first-class university, it often uses high scholarships as a bait. Harvard University believes that it is all the best students in the world, each of which is characterized by it, and it should not be lowered. Need-based policy helps encourage children with low-income families to get the best education.
There is also a major difference in the support and scholarship and the requirements for students' performance. If a university gives students a scholarship, the school expects this student to stand out in the class. Students can only keep their scholarships only to keep their academic highlights. Harvard University gives students a bursary, only the amount is changed when family revenue changes. An a student does not stand out, but as long as it is not bad enough to drop the extent, the money is also a lot.
The helpers' scholarships in the United States have differentiated policies and Harvard University. I hope this short article helps encourage more excellent middle school students to apply for the first-class private universities in the United States, please remember that these schools are only helping to learn money in the undergraduate stage, no scholarships. By the way, I will reveal a misleading of many media to the public. If you listen to the media that a person is particularly highlighted by a certain score, your correct first response should be: his home economy is not very good, but the child is really good.
