"And can't afford it"
I do appreciate their efforts, but I bet that they decide who can and can't afford it, probably based on rigid criteria that inflexibly denies at least some folks in the middle who really can't afford it.
Edit: It is possible I am wrong, the Harvard website linked above at least gives the impression they work with folks in varied circumstances. My experience helping folks with aid programs has perhaps coloured my perspective on Harvards unfairly. I have no experience dealing with them. If you want to attend Harvard, by all means, please apply and give them a chance! It is worth the rhe shot.
