OEB Prospective Students

For the 2026-2027 application cycle, GSAS programs at Harvard are accepting a substantially reduced cohort size than usual. As OEB is a direct-admissions program, prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to consult the faculty website for the most current indications of who may—or may not—be considering new students this cycle. Applicants should use this information as a general guide in addition to directly contacting prospective labs for further information.
