A student’s chances for admission and financial aid are not affected by citizenship or by the location of the school that the student attends.
Am I Eligible to Apply?

- We seek promising students who will contribute to the Harvard community during their college years, and to society throughout their lives.

At Ordinary level I passed eight subjects namely Maths, Integrated Science and English among others.At Advanced Level I had passes in Mathematics, Physics, Geography and Business Studies.
