Prospective Students Welcome!

Are you a high school chess-player thinking about applying to Harvard? While Harvard does not offer any chess scholarships, we do have one of the most active collegiate chess clubs in the nation. In almost every incoming class we receive a handful of strong players, including several experts and masters.

Inter-collegiate competition is only one aspect of our chess club. We are also heavily involved in teaching chess in the community and also in organizing various on-campus events ranging from beginner's blitz tournaments to USCF rated tournaments.
