Other requirements

General requirements

To begin the admission process, you simply register—no application needed.

STAT 150 Intermediate Statistics: Methods and Modeling or PSYC 1900 Statistical Modeling for Social and Behavioral Sciences
PSYC 1501 Industrial Psychology and Organizational Behavior
MGMT 4000 Organizational Behavior

Before registering for MGMT 4000, you'll need to pass our online test of critical reading and writing skills or earn a B or higher in EXPO 34 Business Rhetoric.

You have two registration attempts to earn the minimum grade of B and fulfill the requirement for statistics (a withdrawal grade counts as an attempt). You may take STATS 150 twice or PSYC 1900 twice or attempt each course once.

The three courses don't need to be taken in a particular order or in the same semester, but each course must be completed with a grade of B or higher, without letting your overall Harvard cumulative GPA dip below 3.0.
