Harvard is now a possibility for lower-income families!



No, this is something that I will not get to enjoy for a long time to come.  However, I know that there are a lot of you out there with high schoolers and, in this economy, the idea of paying for a college education are daunting!  So, I think that if you have a child that is soon to be college bound this is most definitely something you should look into!

Harvard University Announcement
No Tuition and No Student Loans!
Harvard University announced over the weekend that from now on students from low-income families will pay no tuition.  In making the announcement, Harvard'spresident Lawrence Summers said, "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:
