It’s not Harvard college but it’s one of the 12 or 13 degree-granting schools at Harvard University. Which the typical Harvard is part of and is one of the schools. Along with the law school, business school, medical school, etc

The reason it’s cheaper is because it’s online and it’s for non traditional students. Students who already have careers/families. But they do offer bachelors degrees.

And it’s actually not 100% online. You have to take so many classes in person at Harvard College to finish. So apparently I’ve read people travel to and from Cambridge.

Anyway. I’m only in stage 1 of the application process which is very strict and strenuous.
Hope it goes well, sounds like a cool thing to get to try out
