Wellesley College offers several options to assist faculty and staff members when they are buying
or refinancing a home.

     If you are a tenured faculty member or senior administrator seeking a mortgage on a
        residence within a 10-mile radius of the College, you are eligible for the Wellesley
        College Faculty Mortgage Program.

     If you are NOT a tenured faculty member or if you seek to purchase or refinance a
        house outside a 10-mile radius of the College, you may choose any mortgage vendor. We
        recommend Harbor Mortgage Solution, a firm that does business with College employees
        and offers competitive rates.

     Pick up and read a faculty mortgage packet (available in the Office of Finance and
        Treasurer - GRH 146 - or Controllers Office - GRH 139 ).

     Pick up a Harbor Mortgage Solutions package from Eleanor Tutty at Human Resources,
        GRH 136.

        your vendor or Wellesley College.
