Harvard University MBA Admissions
The Harvard Business School's MBA programme is a two-year, full-time course. The MBA programme is accepting applications for the academic years beginning in 2023.

By the middle of December, Harvard notifies students of restrictive early action. Regular decision applicants learn their fate by the end of March. On the application portal, students can monitor the outcome of their applications.

Students receive an email notification as soon as the decision is announced to remind them to check the status of their application. After 15 minutes of the decision being released, students can review their applications. The students might not get the reminder email if they are still logged in when the decisions are announced.

The Admissions Committee considers various factors besides high school grades, including leadership and distinction in extracurricular activities, community involvement, and personal traits and character.
