Harvard to Accept GRE and GMAT

In a quick update to Harvard Business School‘s Admissions Blog, Dierdre Leopold announced that the class of 2012 will have the option of submitting either GRE or GMAT test scores as part of their application package.

“We think that both tests will provide adequate metrics of what a standardized test can tell us about a candidate,” she says, adding “It will take a while for us to do a complete update of every reference to these tests on our website ”” in the meantime, please accept this as official notification of this change.”
