Special Student Status
Undergraduate and graduate students of the Harvard Extension School who maintain a minimum GPA of 3.33 or 3.5 respectively (3.7 for those enrolled in the Graduate Program in Management), and have completed the required course credits at the Harvard Extension School, may apply, with the required recommendations, for Special Student Status. If granted, Special Student Status allows a student to take two 4-credit courses per semester, for a total of four courses per academic year in the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. This is especially important for ALB undergraduates, who like their Harvard College counterparts, hold this as an opportunity to enroll in advanced level coursework.

Famous quotes containing the words special, student and/or status:
“... [the] special relation of women to children, in which the heart of the world has always felt there was something sacred, serves to impress upon women certain tendencies, to endow them with certain virtues ... which will render them of special value in public affairs.”
—Mary Putnam Jacobi (1842–1906)
“Beauty, like all other qualities presented to human experience, is relative; and the definition of it becomes unmeaning and useless in proportion to its abstractness. To define beauty not in the most abstract, but in the most concrete terms possible, not to find a universal formula for it, but the formula which expresses most adequately this or that special manifestation of it, is the aim of the true student of aesthetics.”
—Walter Pater (1839–1894)
“A genuine Left doesn’t consider anyone’s suffering irrelevant or titillating; nor does it function as a microcosm of capitalist economy, with men competing for power and status at the top, and women doing all the work at the bottom.... Goodbye to all that.”
—Robin Morgan (b. 1941)
