What do Medical Schools think of the Harvard Extension School during admissions?
I sure beats most schools, and so it is a good thing for getting into med school or anything elce. However it is not looked at at Harvard itself. So if the choice is Joe’s Collage Shack or Harvard Extention, Harvard Ext. will win. However if the choice is between Harvard and Harvard Extention, Harvard is better. Distance education allows students living around the world to experience Harvard through a variety of Extension School courses. Lectures conducted on campus are videotaped, then made available online along with course-related material. Local students may attend lectures in person or watch them online and frequently enjoy the benefits of doing both. In some cases, courses are available only online. All students complete the same coursework. Much of the communication between faculty and students occurs by e-mail and course websites. Many courses also have a bulletin board or chat room to foster dialogue among students and the teaching staff. Credit toward degrees and certificates
