Harvard Business School MBA Admissions Requirement: Full-Time Work Experience

To succeed in Harvard Business School's case-based learning environment, applicants must have at least two years of full-time professional work experience by the time they enroll. This experience can be in the public, private, or nonprofit sectors.

It’s important to note that internships and co-op programs completed during school terms or summer breaks do not count as full-time work experience. Harvard emphasizes meaningful, professional-level contributions that demonstrate leadership and impact.
