Important Pre-Skills Reminder!

We would like to remind you that the Harvard Business School Pre-Skills courses are due by Sunday, August 7th. Most of you have already purchased the HBS Pre-Skills courses; however many have not yet started the required work. We strongly encourage the remaining students to please purchase the Pre-Skills, and all students begin working on these as soon as possible, as the courses are a significant time commitment (just ask a Second Year MBA!). Please review the purchase information and letters from each faculty member the Pre-Skills Requirements page on the Incoming Student Website.

As always, please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions.

 

Thank you,
