HARVARD
AT A GLANCE
Naming
The name Harvard comes from the
college’s first benefactor,
the young English minister (clergyman) JOHN
HARVARD of Charlestown. Upon his death in 1638, he left his school library and half his estate to the
institution of a college, established in 1636 by vote of the Great and
General Court of the Massachusetts Bay Colony.

Harvard’s museums are stewards of more than 28 million works of
art, artifacts, specimens, materials, and instruments.
With deep roots in scholarship and teaching, these internationally renowned
collections are fundamental to the development and continuation of many
disciplines.

more than 650,000 local, national, and international visitors each year.
Faculties, Schools, and an Institute
Harvard
University is made up of 11 principal
academic units – ten faculties and
the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study. The ten faculties oversee
schools and divisions that offer courses and award academic degrees.
Undergraduate Cost And Financial Aid
Families
with students on scholarship pay an average of $12,000 annually toward the cost
of a Harvard education. More than 55 percent of Harvard College students
receive scholarship aid,
and the average grant this year is $50,000.
Since
2007, Harvard’s
investment in financial aid has climbed by more
than 75 percent, from $96.6 million to $170 million per year.
During
the 2012-2013 academic year, students from families with incomes below $65,000,
and with assets typical for that income level, will generally pay nothing
toward the cost of attending
HARVARD COLLEGE.
Families
with incomes between $65,000 and $150,000 will contribute from 0 to 10 percent
of income, depending on individual circumstances. Significant financial
aid also is available for families above those income ranges.
Harvard
College launched a net price
calculator into which applicants and their families can
enter their financial data to estimate the net price they will be expected to
pay for a year at Harvard. Please use
the calculator to estimate the net cost of attendance.
The
total 2016-2017 cost of attending Harvard
College without financial aid is $43,280
for tuition and $63,025 for tuition,
room, board, and fees combined.
University Professors
The
title of University
Professor was created in 1935 to honor individuals whose
groundbreaking work crosses the boundaries of multiple disciplines, allowing
them to pursue research at any of Harvard’s Schools. View the list of University
Professors.
Harvard Campaign
The Harvard Campaign is
designed to embrace the future and to ensure Harvard’s leadership as it
approaches its fifth century of education and inquiry in the pursuit of
enduring truth.
HARVARD UNIVERSITY SHIELDS

Harvard and the Military
Members of Harvard University’s “Long Crimson Line”
have served in the United States Armed Forces since before the nation’s independence.
Harvard counts among its graduates 18 Medal of Honor recipients, more than any
other institution of higher education except the United States Military and
Naval Academies. Buildings and sites around campus are daily reminders of
Harvard’s deep military history.
General George Washington kept headquarters at
Wadsworth House before taking command of the revolutionary troops in 1775,
Massachusetts Hall and Harvard Hall were used as barracks, and building
materials were repurposed to make musket balls during the War of Independence.
Memorial Hall and Memorial Church honor the sacrifice of Harvard men and women
who “freely gave their lives and fondest hopes for us and our allies that we
might learn from them courage in peace to spend our lives making a better world
for others.” In 2011, Harvard welcomed the Naval
Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC) program back to campus, followed thereafter by the full complement of Army and Air Force regiments.
HarvardX
HarvardX is a University-wide strategic initiative, overseen by the Office of the Vice Provost for Advances in Learning (VPAL), enabling
faculty to create open, online courses for on campus and global learners and
advancing research in the learning sciences.
To date, HarvardX has
engaged more than 120 faculty across ten schools, producing more than 80 open
online courses with over 1.5 million unique course participants.
On campus, HarvardX has enabled hybrid learning in over a dozen residential
courses and convened over 300 individuals (faculty, undergraduates, graduates,
technologists) in developing content, conducting research, or blending courses.
A leader in advancing the science of learning, HarvardX and VPAL Research have produced more than
100 research publications and two major benchmark reports on MOOC learner demographics and behavior.
