Sort By: [Date] [Major] [Rating] Biology  Major Salary, Salary Trend, Satisfaction, Unemployment Quite Bright Harvard University is one of the best college experiences one can have if one is lucky enough to get in. I got into Harvard as well as UC Berkeley, UCLA, Stanford and UPenn and for me Harvard was my top choice. The academic environment is stimulating, cutthroat, open-minded and progressive. It is the most truly collegiate atmosphere in the country. The other students are from everywhere and are the best of the best. Do you have to work hard? Heck yes, and no one is going to hold your hand, so if you're into self motivation and individual accountability, you'll do just fine. People are genuine, they aren't fake nice or anything like that. Get to know your professors and pick their brains. Get involved on campus. Take classes in a variety of subjects. Work hard, play hard. Open your mind to learning, that's what college is about. Those that just want a degree and getting out need not apply. There are many other places that are cheaper and more convenient for career preparation. If you truly want to learn and open your mind to new things, come here. You'll be going to college in the best college city in the country, as well as the best college area in the country, the Northeast. Make these four years the best ever. You'll have the rest of your life to be an adult, Harvard gives you four years to be a student of the world. Education Quality: A+, Faculty Accessibility: B- Have a Question?

I had a 4.0 GPA with a 2300/2400 SAT. First and foremost, Harvard professors DO NOT care about the students. The professors in this school are more focused on their own research rather than the wellness of the student. I transferred out of Harvard because the academics are a joke. I was seeking a challenge and this is definitely not the school to find a challenge. I transferred to Fordham University in New York because I was offered a full scholarship. Looking back at my Harvard days, I was very disappointed in the faculty. The students range from arrogant self absorbed individuals, to friendly and down to earth individuals. Overall, I give Harvard a C in terms of Academics. The reputation is phenomenal; however what good is the reputation if one is lacking the knowledge? I enjoy my new school not only because it?s free but they actually offer a challenge in terms of academics. I plan on going to graduate school at Yale University or Cornell University, notice I will not be returning to Harvard. University Resource Use: A+, Individual Value: F Have a Question?
