大三暑假申请->大四第一学期录取->毕业工作两年->两年HBS MBA=一个年轻有为的明日之星诞生
申请商科master并不是唯一出路的。只要能申请上这个program,其他商科master都不能与其相提并论。当然,你要有思想准备你必须是那种成绩顶尖,课余活动实习等等相当充实的学生。
优点:
- 推荐信可以是教授/实习supervisor等等熟悉你的人,不像MBA一定要work related
- GRE和GMAT都可以申请
- 毕业后工作只要在认可的范围就可以了(估计范围会很广)
- 工作两年后马上进入HBS读MBA
- toefl/gre/gmat/申请文书等都可以在大学时完成,免除了在职准备的劳累和辛苦
- 一共录取大约106人,虽然竞争激烈,但怎么说也比一般top school的master录取的人多,而且一旦被录取hbs mba比你什么top school master都更有含金量
- 一旦被录取HBS会有专门的mentor指导你如何找工作,怎么提高自己etc
-虽然要WES验证成绩单,但这是录取之后的事情,
缺点:
- toefl没有109白纸黑字说明不建议申请
- 推荐文理工科的人apply,商科的说了不建议申请
- 到时候读MBA学费和一般MBA一样,比master贵很多(虽然和其他录取的HBS MBA一样可以申请贷款,但“国际学生”+“年轻”+“工作经验不多”+“经济危机”, 能不能借得到相当成问题)

FAQ:
2+2 Program When will the 2+2 application become available? The 2+2 application will be available on our website by March of 2009. If you introduce yourself to us, we will email you when the application becomes available. I am a college senior (or recent graduate). Am I eligible to apply to the 2+2 program? You are eligible to apply to the regular MBA program, but not the 2+2 Program. In order to be eligible for the 2+2 Program you must be a current college junior with at least one remaining semester, after July 2009, necessary for the completion of your degree. College seniors and recent graduates are welcome to apply via the regular MBA application process. College senior applicants benefit from several special policies: a reduced application fee of $100, and the opportunity to postpone matriculation for up to two years. There is more information on applying directly from college on the HBS web site. Which tests does the 2+2 Program accept? The 2+2 Program accepts either the GMAT or the GRE as part of the application process. Due to additional credits/my involvement in a co-op program/joint degree pursuits/ect., I will graduate in December of 2009. Am I eligible to apply to the 2+2 Program in July of 2009? Yes. We require that applicants have at least one remaining semester to complete their degree when they apply. My undergraduate concentration is in a business-related field, and I have had a lot of business exposure. Is 2+2 the right program for me? The 2+2 Program is primarily targeted towards students who are not already on a business track (i.e. students studying the liberal arts, sciences, engineering, etc.). If your current academic training and internship experiences put you on a solid foundation to advance in a business career, 2+2 may not be the right program for you. We encourage candidates with a strong track record of leadership and business exposure to consider applying as college seniors to our regular MBA Program. If I'm pursuing a 3- or 5-year degree, am I still eligible for the 2+2 program? Yes. Students pursuing undergraduate degrees that are shorter or longer than 4 years are eligible to apply. Students should apply the summer prior to their final year of study. Can I apply to 2+2 if I am interested in pursuing a joint degree (MBA/MPP, MBA/JD,MBA/MD, ect.)? Yes. Students admitted to the 2+2 Program are eligible to apply for joint degrees with other Harvard Graduate Schools. HBS currently participates in joint degree programs with Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard Law School, and Harvard Medical School. For more information about the joint degree programs offered by HBS, go to the Joint Degree Programs section on the HBS website. If I apply to 2+2 and I'm not admitted, may I apply to the MBA program as a college senior? Yes. Students who are not accepted to the 2+2 Program are welcome to apply as college seniors through the regular MBA application process. If I apply to 2+2 and I'm not admitted, will it negatively affect my chances of acceptance to Harvard Business School in the future? No. If you have applied to 2+2, you will be at neither an advantage nor disadvantage in comparison to other applicants. Are international students eligible to apply to 2+2? Yes. Domestic and international students alike are welcome to apply. Will the 2+2 program guarantee me a job after graduation? You are responsible for securing your two years of employment; however, the 2+2 Program will provide many resources to assist you. A dedicated HBS career coach will help you navigate your job search, and HBS will introduce you to a wide network of recruiting partners who have expressed interest in receiving resumes from participants in the 2+2 Program. Are my job opportunities limited to the recruiting partners that HBS has enlisted? Not at all. Our partner companies and organizations have indicated interest in providing opportunities for 2+2 admitted students; you are welcome, however, to go outside our list of partners for your two-years of work experience. How many seats are available in the 2+2 program? We admitted 106 students to the inaugural 2+2 cohort and don't expect that number to grow substantially. However, we will let the strength of the applicant pool determine the exact number of admission offers we extend. Who should my recommendations come from? Recommenders should be individuals who know you well and who can relate specific and relevant details about your abilities and performance. We believe that supervisors from an internship or part-time work experience, professors, advisors, and mentors can all serve as equally good recommenders. The Admissions Board discourages recommendations from peers, if possible. When is the latest I can take the GMAT or GRE? The GMAT or GRE is required by the 2+2 application deadline on July 1, 2009, at 5 p.m. EST. When submitting your application, you must report the unofficial GMAT or GRE score given on the day of the test. This is the only score that the Admissions Board acknowledges. The official test score(s) sent by GMAC or ETS may arrive after the deadline dates, and this score will be used for verification purposes. What should I expect from the interview process? Interviews are conducted on the Harvard Business School campus, by invitation only, and at the discretion of the MBA Admissions Board. If you are invited to interview, you must participate in order to complete the application process. All interviews will take place on campus during August 17-23, 2009 and will last approximately 30 minutes each. Once I come to HBS, will I and the other 2+2 admitted students be part of a separate program? No. Once 2+2 students begin their MBA experience on-campus, they will be integrated into the HBS community with all other students in the MBA Program.
