Is there a clause in Harvard's business school entry policies that state that a bachelor's is not required if 1) said person acquires a certain type and amount of experience and 2) this certain type and amount of experience must be with a prestigous and/or reputable employer?

Is there even anything that says "business school requirements are on a case-by-case basis?"

I know about loosening requirements based on the application pool or other extenuating factors. But waving off the bachelor's degree is too much. Tell him to get a degree from SOMEWHERE and then come back and use his President-helper-thingie to get into Harvard.

Yes. The clause is that Harvard's Business School is a private entity, and can do its thing however it wants to....regardless of what the rest of us think. Which is why I don't really have an opinion either way. I can see both sides, but what it comes down to, is not what you or I say, but what the Harvard people say.

DUH.

But back to my question.
