I can’t remember where I read this statistic, but less than 400 student’s (out of 6400 undergraduates) actually study abroad during the fall and spring semesters. Maybe that’s because most student’s choose Harvard to study with the noted professor’s there and don’t want to interrupt their academic year to study somewhere else. What many students do instead is to spend a summer abroad. If a student is on financial aid, the cost of the summer program abroad varies from student to student, depending upon individual circumstances. https://college.harvard.edu/academics/enrichment-programs/study-abroad

Your need-based financial aid travels with you for your study abroad program during the academic year. Additionally, loans and some Harvard grants are available for summer programs.
