I'm also a grad of the Extension School, although not in CS. In-class instruction is fantastic for certain programs, with access to Harvard faculty, instructors, and other resources. I've blogged about it extensively here: http://harvardextended.blogspot.com/ http://harvardextended.blogspot.com/
Some undergraduate and graduate programs enable Extension students to attend Harvard College or GSAS classes. I don't remember the requirements/restrictions, but look up "special student" status on the HES website for details.
- 50something 9y agoYeah, I got special student status which allowed me to take grad level CS classes. Requirements: * min 64 credits, 32 of which from HES, 12 of which must be in the relevant field, i.e. CompSci * >= 3.33 GPA * The hardest part: two recommendations, hence the value of building personal relationships with the professors. https://www.extension.harvard.edu/sites/extension.harvard.edu/files/atoms/files/ext_special_student_petition.pdf https://www.extension.harvard.edu/sites/extension.harvard.ed...
