"I did my Master's degree part-time in the evenings through the Harvard University Extension School. It was a wonderful program that allowed me to work full-time and complete my degree at a pace which I could handle. The professors were wonderful, but I learned as much from my classmates who brought so much experience."

"Attending Harvard was a blessing. The faculty, academic curriculum, and other resources are outstanding. However, what really made the experience special were the relationships I formed with my peers and classmates. These relationships have lasted well beyond school and will stick with my through out my career and personal life."

"The experience that I have had thus far at Harvard Graduate School of Education has been incredible. Highlights so far have been the availability of Professor's, the community of learners who I am surrounded by, and the message of inclusively that is being both talked about and acted upon consistently. I recommend this program to anyone considering a Master's in Education and look very forward to next semester!"

"The classes were fantastic and really geared towards teaching us to how to develop, perform, and present research. Great preparation for a career in academia or industry. I would definitely encourage people to take advantage of all the resources available. It's the type of program where it's easy for people to show up for class without really getting involved, but you miss out on so many great opportunities when you do that."

"My specific degree is in Voice and Speech Pedagogy. Across the world, the American Repertory Theater Institute for Advanced Theater Training, was one of very few programs that fit my interests and what I was looking to study in graduate school. Based on my current experience in the program, I would highly recommend this program at Harvard University."

"I am currently taking pre-requisite graduate-level degree courses at Harvard Extension school, and I want everyone to know what an amazing value it is! Graduate 4-credit course is $2,600 as of now, and Master's degree will cost you only around $30,000. Courses can be taken online via web-conferences (similar to Skype) and some course are required to be taken on campus. Professors are reputable and distinguished, and so far it is not scary at all - if you study, you will finish!"

"I am enrolled in the Master of Architecture II, which is post professional degree program. The school offers a variety of opportunities, including exhibitions, public lectures, publications, and workshops. The five-story open studio space is a very attractive learning environment, where everyone can see each other and what are being produced. The sharing of physical space and the visibility of various productions through all disciplines give good inspirations and enhance productive energy. I highly recommend the program to those who have a strong passion for practicing in the field of design."

"Great if you know exactly what you want to get out of it. Don't go in with no plan. Scholarships and needs-based aid is definitely there, as are ample networking opportunities. Academic advising is very hit or miss, and it really depends on who your advisor is."
