What does the scholarship cover?
- The financial aid policies for foreign citizens are exactly the same as those for U.S. citizens. All aid is need-based, and admissions decisions are made without regard to whether an applicant has applied for financial assistance.
- When you apply for aid, we work directly with your family and factor in additional expenses for international students. Harvard meets each family’s demonstrated need.
How many scholarships are given?

Which countries are targeted?
- ALL
- There are no quotas or limits of any kind at any point in the admissions process. All students are considered in the same pool for all places in the incoming class, regardless of citizenship or the secondary school they attend. A student’s chances for admission and financial aid are not affected by citizenship or by the location of the school that the student attends.
Am I Eligible to Apply?
- Each applicant to Harvard College is considered with great care. While there is no formula for gaining admission, we hope you will explore the information in this section to understand what we look for in our holistic admissions process.
- We seek promising students who will contribute to the Harvard community during their college years, and to society throughout their lives.
- While academic accomplishment is important, the Admissions Committee considers many other factors—strong personal qualities, special talents or excellences of all kinds, perspectives formed by unusual personal circumstances, and the ability to take advantage of available resources and opportunities.

Martey Tetteh Raymond says
Raymond is my name,a 17 year old boy from Africa and Ghana to be precise.
I school at St. Charles Minor Seminary/ Senior High School in the Tamale which is in the Northern part of Ghana.
I am in a family of 4 which includes my parents and my siblings.
It has always been my passion and desire to be a renowned Veterinary doctor, because it always hurts me to see animals be in pain.
But all this will not come to past if you do not please give me the necessary support and motivation to move from this present situation of mine to another level and also to help in the realization of my dreams and aspirations.
My only appeal is that I will get a very Generous and God fearing person who will be able to give me all what it takes.
I hope to hear from you soon and may the Good Lord in His own ways continue to shower His blessings upon you

Dear Sir/Madam,(Havard University)
I write this with humbleness and therefore do request you to come to my rescue interms of meeting my tuition and other requirements for a university study leading to any Business related course. I previously studied a diploma in Business Administration and Management and I went through alot of hardships while at school at that time simply because I lacked somebody to pay for my tuition and then after skipping two semesters/terms a good sammaritan came to my rescue and that was how I finished my diploma. I Pray you God Almighty grant me more favour again through this wellwisher coming to my rescue. May the hand that will always give me any educational support be a blessed one now and forever. God bless you
