Pathway to Acceptance at Harvard Business School


A Guide to Harvard Business School Acceptance for Your Child or Teenager


An intricate maze crafted from ivy-covered Harvard bricks. The entrance of the maze is flanked by two traditional Harvard lamps, while the end of the labyrinth reveals a symbolic acceptance letter.

While many parents aspire for their children to attend top-tier institutions like Harvard Business School, navigating the complex acceptance process can often feel daunting. Here at Grannville Consulting, we can guide you and your child on this journey, leveraging our vast pool of resources to provide value insights and strategically plan your route to Harvard.


Understanding The Basics


Acceptance at Harvard Business School is a process with numerous variables. A well-rounded application usually includes strong grades, competitive test scores, impactful extracurricular activities, and compelling personal essays. However, gateways such as the Future Leaders Program and other outreach initiatives provide alternative paths, thwarting the simple, linear acceptance routine.


Academic Excellence


Harvard values students who exhibit academic excellence throughout their high school years. This doesn't necessarily transcribe to just good grades; it also includes taking challenging courses, and showing an upward trend in academics.


A balanced scale with critical admission components on each side. One side holds textbooks, a graduation cap, and a sports ball, representing academic excellence and extracurricular involvement. The other side contains a feather pen and an hourglass, symbolizing strategic planning and persistent mentoring.

Leadership and Extracurriculars


Involvement in extracurricular activities that demonstrate leadership, commitment, and passion is another crucial component to getting admitted. Whether it's sports, volunteer work, school clubs or entrepreneurial efforts, these activities create a complete profile of a prospective student's abilities -- beyond just academics.


Effective Test Scores


Performing well on SAT or ACT is important, but unlike some universities, Harvard views these scores as part of a holistic review process. High scores can strengthen an application, but they don’t guarantee admission.
