Harvard Extension School - How Is It?

Well, I'm young and ever since visiting Boston for a couple summers when my father was a summer lecturer at BU, I've fallen in love with the city.

I've just received word today that the company I work for is expanding to open an office in Boston and if I'm interested, I'll have a job there.

Now, it's also been my dream to attend Harvard and well ... with the Harvard Extension School, I can have the next best thing.

So, I was wondering if anyone here could tell me about HES and their thoughts on it --- I'd like to know as much as possible.

I understand there is an application process and everything first and that they prefer nontraditional students from what I gather, which I fit into --- I graduated HS and directly enlisted into the Army, getting an honorable discharge this year.

So, anyway, inform away!

I just took the Biology of Cancer course at HES, and it was fantastic. I just took it as a grad course for fun (I work at Dana Farber), so Im not sure how their degrees work, but it definitely was worth it 😀

Your best bet is to browse through the link dedicated to HES. It should provide you with what you are looking for.
