Thank you for your interest in the Harvard Business School Doctoral Programs.
The only requirement for application is a bachelor's degree, so you are qualified, with or without the CEIBS MBA.
Eight programs are available through HBS. The Doctor of Business Administration (DBA) degree includes five possible areas of study: Accounting and Control; Marketing; Policy and Management; Strategy; and Technology and Operations Management. Three PhD programs are offered in conjunction with various departments of the Graduate School of Arts and Science (GSAS): Business Economics; Information, Technology and Management; and Organizational Behavior.
Applicants to all doctoral programs must submit the following:
- a completed application form;
- a resume;
- a Statement of Purpose;
- official transcripts of all undergraduate and graduate course work;
- official GRE or GMAT scores for a test taken after January 1, 2001 (the GMAT is preferred, if possible);
- three letters of recommendation; and
- an application fee (in the form of a check from a US bank or a money order in US dollars).
Applicants whose native language is not English must also submit official scores for a test of English proficiency taken after January 1, 2004, with some exceptions. Applicants to the PhD programs are exempt from taking the TOEFL if they have any degree from an English-speaking institution. Applicants to the DBA program must have a four-year bachelor's degree form an English-speaking institution to be exempt from the TOEFL requirement. PhD applicants who are not qualified for one of these exemptions must submit scores from the TOEFL. DBA applicants who aren't qualified may submit either TOEFL or IELTS scores.
Successful candidates generally have standardized test scores in the 90th percentile, excellent records of academic performance, exemplary letters of recommendation, and well-defined research interests. Furthermore, they are committed to careers in research and teaching at top business schools. HBS's nine doctoral programs prepare educators and researchers, academics whose thoughts will advance knowledge in the area of business. A deep desire to pursue the intellectual frontiers in business coupled with the ability to realize such goals are important for success in HBS Doctoral Programs.
All doctoral programs are on-campus, full-time and begin in September. There are no distance learning options. Completion of a program typically takes four to five years. Admitted students receive fellowships covering full tuition, health care, and a living stipend ($27,000 in 2004) for four years.
Please note that HBS no longer produces a paper catalog. The application deadline for Fall 2006 enrollment will be December 15, 2005. Applications for Fall '06 are available only online but will not be posted until Fall '05.

To Whom It May Concern:
Thank you for your attention. I write to inquire whether I can apply for Ph.D. of marketing in your school.
I will graduate from China Europe International Business School (CEIBS) the end of this year. Had functioned in marketing-related field for almost 7 years prior to my admission into CEIBS in 2004, I am much fond of marketing. The wish to become a marketing teacher in China’s business schools after obtaining Ph.D. from such leading school as Harvard University occurred to me last year when I acquainted, for the first time, with Professor Linda G. Sprague, who graduated from Harvard in 1973 and currently is Professor of Manufacturing and Operations Management at CEIBS and Faculty Advisor to the CEIBS Case Development Centre. Subsequently, Professor Linda G. Sprague and I had several happy talks and her remarks to me inspire me to resolve on further pursuing Ph.D..
Several inquiries about the doctoral degree programs in Chinese domestic leading universities, such as laceName>QinghualaceName> laceType>UniversitylaceType> or laceName>BeijinglaceName> laceType>UniversitylaceType>, however, seriously discouraged me. I am not permitted to apply for the doctoral degree programme of those universities aforesaid, inasmuch as the master degree which will be issued to me and which has been approved by Ministry of Education of China is not approved by another education authority, the degree committee, which is affiliated to the State Council of China. The reason why the State Council refuses to approve the master degree is because the admission entrance test of CEIBS’s MBA program is not GRK organized by an entity in China but GMAT organized by ETS in America. However, it is the very business school, CEIBS, that enjoys, recently, the great success and good reputation not only domestically but also regionally, internationally. Its MBA program was ranked No. 22, whereas its EMBA program No. 20, round the world as per the well-known British-based Financial Times.
My question, therefore, is simply this. Am I qualified to apply the Ph.D. in your university after obtaining MBA degree from CEIBS?
Your efforts and time to reply my simple question would be highly appreciated.
Yours truly,
Freeman

Hi freeman,
A bachelor's degree or the equivalent, representing a four-year course of study in an accredited college or university, is required for admission.
A master's degree is not required, although many applicants have the master's degree in such fields as economics, engineering, psychology, and statistics. Superior academic performance is expected. Those who hold American Ph.D. or Sc.D. degrees or their foreign equivalents are not normally eligible for admission. (Occasionally, an exception to this rule can be arranged.)
All candidates for admission must take either the Graduate Management Admissions Test (GMAT) or the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) given by Education Testing Service at numerous centers throughout the U.S. and abroad.
Thank you for your interest in Columbia Business School.
