You Should Be a Harvard Student

Introducing the HBS 2+2 Program.

Now accepting applications from college juniors. As a friend of the Harvard Business School community, we are excited to share with you the launch of an innovative new program: HBS 2+2.

The HBS 2+2 Program targets talented college students who traditionally would not consider business education. The program accepts applications from college juniors for deferred admission to Harvard Business School. HBS 2+2 is positioned as a four-year experience comprising two years of work after the completion of an undergraduate degree followed by two years of immersion in our MBA Program.

Once students are admitted to HBS 2+2, they become connected to the HBS community and enjoy a range of program-specific benefits.

These benefits include dedicated career coaching and self-assessment, access to select recruiting partners, and two on-campus summer programs (after graduation and between the first and second year of work).

To learn more about the program, visit the 2+2 Program Website www.hbs.edu/mba/2%2b2/.

Additionally, we welcome you to download the HBS 2+2 Program brochure www.hbs.edu/mba/2+2/brochure.pdf .

Don't Believe the Hype!

Despite Re-Circulating E-mail, It is Still Not Necessary to Register Cell Phone Numbers

As the number of phone numbers on the National Do Not Call (DNC) Registry surpassed 139 million, the Federal Trade Commission today reiterated that despite the claims made in e-mails circulating on the Internet, consumers should not be concerned that their cell phone numbers will be released to telemarketers at any time in the near future. In addition, according to the agency, it is not necessary to register cell phone numbers on the DNC Registry to be protected from most telemarketing calls to cell phones.

The truth about cell phones and the DNC Registry is:

* Contrary to the e-mail, cell phone numbers are NOT being released to telemarketers, and you will NOT soon be getting telemarketing calls on your cell phone.
