I'm not a bad student but I don't have the best or most impresive grades in high school. I want to do my MBA and Harvard has a great business program. I regret messing up my high school career. I really want to go to Harvard. In Maryland, the community college for us is Montgomery college, its supposed to be a pretty good college, even for a community. They have an honors program for the macklin business intitue which is pretty prestigious and all. The seats are limited. I heard that Harvard accepts transfers students from Montogomery College. Is this true? If I do well in a community college and do really well, can I get into harvard? Is that possible for a community college? One thing I forgot to mention is that I'm in my senior year in high school so I don't have much time to imrove my grades and all.

Thanks for any advice I really appreciate it!! This is really important to me!! :)

So, I take it you are thinking of going into your community college for business? Just one recommendation. Community colleges are practice, whereby Harvard is theory. When you get your credits on community college and you still feel strong about your business degree, you can pickup theory at Harvard.

I don't know about Harvard accepting transfers, but does it have to be Harvard ? You may feel differently about that four years down the road. I am all for community colleges. My son started in IT at a community college, this college recommended extra certs for him to receive (some very expensive) and he has never looked back.

Good luck, you are heading in the right direction, Rize.
