<p>Does the Harvard Low Income Scholarship apply just to tuition or does it help with room and board? Otherwise it would still be hard for low income families to cough up $10,000 a year just for room and board.</p>
<p>Yes, when Harvard determines financial need, the entire costs of attendance – room and board, tuition, books, fees, transportation-- are taken into account.</p>
<p>hey northstarmom - in the message my interviewer left me, he said he was calling from the “Harvard alumni and scholarship service” why scholarships?</p>
<p>The division that takes care of interviewing candidates is called the “Schools and Scholarships Committee.”</p>
