 * Harvard Will Help Low Income Students **

With No Tuition Due

Harvard University is now guaranteeing that students from low-income families

(earning less than $40,000 annually) won't have to pay for their children's

education. Also, households earning less than $60,000 per year will get a

reduction in tuition. This was announced in Feb. 2004. The Harvard president,

Lawrence H. Summers, says the school wants to "recruit talented students from

disadvantaged backgrounds." He also says, "Our doors have long been open to

talented students regardless of financial need, but many students simply do not

know or believe this. We are determined to change both the perception and the

reality.'' About 1,000 of Harvard's 6,600 undergraduates are expected to benefit

from these new initiatives.
