Hi everyone, it is acceptable for MBA harvard to applicant who ielts is only 7.0 ? my overall score is 7.0

I see on their official website that …strongly discourages applicants with IELTS scores below 7.5.

Has anyone ever applied to Harvard MBA with an IELTS score of 7.0?
English proficiency test is not required in the Harvard MBA.

does it make sense to apply to harvard for 2026 intake. the current issue might get resolved but it is possible that the uncertainty remains forever
Only if your candidacy aligns with their core criteria and you’re clear about the risks and uncertainties ahead. HBS has weathered storms before. Its long-term brand seems unlikely to collapse, but reputation erosion is possible if controversies escalate. Have backup schools across geographies. Engage in thoughtful conversations with Harvard students/ alumni to gain deeper insights and then make a decision. Good luck!

Strongly recommended from MBA Conquerors PSA-

PLEASE get in touch with the office of international students at your University (responsible for handling the i-20 & SEVIS) and request them to send you a compliance checklist before you leave for the USA.

There have been changes and you’ll have to comply with certain level of caution especially in at risk universities.
