Each student is assigned a tutor who aids with personal, as well as academic, concerns. Students pay Haverford tuition, room, and board, or, if they seek their own housing, they need only pay tuition. A formal lecture is supplemented with small-group tutorials, seminars, and, in the sciences, by lab and practical classes. The University provides a Director of Studies of Overseas Student Advisor to help resolve academic and personal problems. Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland, provides numerous cultural and social activities, as well as access to unspoiled countryside.
Full board is available through the university.
