New from Harvard Extension School

[ThatBankDude]

@ThatBankDude you're wrong:

https://www.extension.harvard.edu/about-us

The first line says 'We are Harvard' and they state 'We are a fully accredited Harvard School'

Even the harvard.edu mentions it in their 'distance education' programs:

https://www.harvard.edu/about-harvard/fr...e-learning

The school is a part of Harvard just like any other school within Harvard and was founded before quite a bit of schools within Harvard.

So where will I tell them I went? MIT? Yale? WGU?

If they ask I'll say I went to Harvard. If I show them my diploma it'll have 'Harvard' written on it. Not Yale, not Colimbia not Penn Foster. Harvard. End of Text.

The diploma itself is differentiated from others that Harvard issues in that it states "Masters of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies." Is the school a part of Harvard like the others? Yes. Is the school respected like the others? Not so much. Personally, I do not want the fact that I pursued my education online to be differentiated from others who earned their degree on campus. In my opinion, Harvard does just that.
