Harvard Shoestring Strategies

Find free food, cheap textbooks and cool events around Harvard!

Harvard Shoestring Strategies is a guide to living on a budget at Harvard College. Produced entirely by students, for students, the application addresses all areas of college living: Academics, Day-to-Day, Fun, Student Jobs, and Finance. Learn how to eat for free, manage a bank account, snag dirt cheap textbooks, or entertain a group of friends without spending a penny. College is hard enough; don’t make it expensive too.

In the app you’ll find lots of recommendations about how to spend your time here. These views are in no way representative of Harvard University, and stem entirely from the students who developed this app. So go ahead, explore! And make the very most out of your time at one of the greatest institutions in the world.
