Harvard Financial Aid Initiative
Overview
Welcoming Students From All Economic Backgrounds
The Harvard College Financial Aid Initiative (HFAI) recruitment program serves as a touchstone for those looking to learn more about the application and financial aid process, both at Harvard and at large.
About
We are committed to ensuring all admitted students have the opportunity to attend Harvard, regardless of the economic obstacles they have encountered. We launched the Harvard Financial Aid Initiative (HFAI) in 2004 to enhance this effort and to raise awareness of college affordability for students interested in all kinds of colleges and universities.
Our student coordinators are eager to discuss student life, the basics of financial aid policy, and the specifics of the Harvard application. Contact HFAI to hear about their experiences at Harvard.
