The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology (MIT), founded in 1861, is located in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and
is one of the foremost U.S. institutions in science and technology. It is
comprised of five schools and one college, including the renowned School of
Engineering and Sloan School of Management, offering Bachelor's, Master's, and
Doctorate degrees. Notable alumni include Ben Bernanke, Chairman of the Federal
Reserve, Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel, and American astronaut
"Buzz" Aldrin.
MIT admits some of the most
talented students in the world on a need-blind basis. The Institute is
committed to meeting the financial need of each admitted undergraduate student
through MIT scholarships. As a result, the MIT community is incredibly diverse,
and organically collaborative, with students coming from many different
backgrounds, across the country and around the world.
The MIT community brings its
energy and creativity outside the classroom as well with 450+ student-run
groups, 33 varsity sports, 18 intramural sports, 33 club sports, and more than
60 music, theater, visual arts, writing, and dance groups. It’s just a short walk
across the Charles River to Boston where students can enjoy the city’s fabulous
restaurants or take in Boston culture. Many programs around MIT allow students
to get reduced-price tickets to various events, including the Boston Symphony
Orchestra, the American Repertory Theater, and Bruins, Celtics, and Red Sox
games. Students get free admission daily to the Museum of Science, the Museum
of Fine Arts, and all Harvard University and MIT museums.
