Harvard University Company Description
Many parents dream of sending their children to Harvard -- and at more than $32,000 a year (undergraduate), some even dream of being able to afford it. Harvard, the oldest institution of higher learning in the US, is home to Harvard College (undergraduate studies) and 10 graduate schools including the Harvard Business, Law, and Medical schools. The Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard was created when Radcliffe College and Harvard University merged in 1999. Harvard has about 20,000 students, more than half of whom are enrolled in graduate or professional programs. Harvard's endowment of approximately $35 billion is the largest of any university in the world. (Yale ranks #2.)
