Are you doing the undergrad or graduate program and do you live in the Cambridge area?

I am in the graduate program and agree that it has been excellent so far (about halfway done). In my most recent course I ended up presenting my final project at a well-known conference and have been working with the professor on another research project over the summer. Despite being in my mid-40s I am now considering a doctoral degree.

I think it shows that you are not a "lesser" student that snuck in the back door, you are a Harvard student with the same potential and ability to achieve if you work hard and want to make the most of the experience.

That's pretty cool! I'm also going through the graduate program. I'm two classes in and I'm taking two this semester. Any chance you'd want to grab coffee and talk about the program? I'd love to hear about your experiences and the project you presented.

Hey Bob I'm local. Not going through the grad program (undergrad) but would still be down to grab a coffee and chat. Shoot me an email: whoback [at] g.harvard.edu

I'm not local to the Boston area but the next time I am in the area I would be happy to talk!

I'm in the undergrad program. I 100% agree with you re: it is what you make of it. I think I'm in a much better place in my life to take advantage of the offerings at Harvard and the education. Good luck with the PhD!
