Prospective students must apply to and be separately admitted to both the Law School and the Business School, each of which will independently review and admit applicants. Questions relating to the admissions process at each school should be addressed directly to the individual admissions offices:
Prospective JD/MBA students may apply to both schools concurrently or they may apply during the first year of study at either the Law School or the Business School. Law School students cannot enroll in the joint degree program if they are not already enrolled in the Business School by their second year at Harvard and vice versa. Students interested in applying to either school for matriculation in September should note the Law School deadline is early February while the Business School has a rolling admission process with three rounds of applications and three deadlines in early October, early January and early March. All Law School applicants are required to submit an LSAT score, in accordance with application guidelines. All Business School applicants are required to submit a GMAT score.
Once admitted to both schools, all students must complete a Joint Degree Program Declaration of Intent which is due by September 30 of the second year at Harvard.
