Harvard University offers a range of financial aid options for international students, primarily through need-based scholarships rather than merit-based awards. The university provides financial aid that covers 100% of the demonstrated financial need for all admitted undergraduates, ensuring that financial barriers do not prevent access to education. Instead of merit-based scholarships, Harvard’s financial aid for international students typically includes grants that do not require repayment, along with opportunities for student employment and family contributions. Graduate students receive funding through their respective departments, often in the form of fellowships, research assistantships, and teaching assistantships. Additionally, students are encouraged to seek external scholarships to further supplement their funding.
