HBS Executive Programs

by spencerj » Wed Feb 16, 2011 9:32 am
Hi there,

I am wondering if you are familiar at all with the admissions process for HBS's executive education programs like the:
Advanced Management Program
General Management Program
Owner/President Program
Program for Leadership Development

Here are some of my stats:
BA Economics
Consultant for Technology advisory
Executive for Private Equity advisory
Senior VP for Private Equity Derivatives firm
President of a Private Equity Association with ~30 members managing ~20 billion.
~10 years as an executive (32 years old) in total

I can't find much information on any of the executive program's admission criteria/stats/anything!

My biggest concern is that I am too young, but I would like to do it now if possible. Also, the association that I am running is a non-profit, but I am pretty sure they accept these types of executives.

My first choice would be the Advanced Management Program, but if I cannot get into that, then I would settle for any of the others. Do I have a shot?

Please could you give me any information on their admission criteria or direction to where I could find more info on this?

Many thanks
Spencer

Hi,

Thanks for your post. HBS executive programs are quite different (as you know) than their full time MBA program. They are meant for those 10-25 years into their career (depending on the program) and require corporate sponsorship. Check out the HBS website for more details on the programs and qualifications: https://www.exed.hbs.edu/category/Pages/ ... rison.aspx

Regards,

Stacey
