<p>The Harvard website says:</p>
<p>Students preparing to apply as transfer candidates should take challenging liberal arts programs, including mathematics, science, and a foreign language, if they are not already proficient in these areas. </p>
<p>Does this mean that even if plan to major in IR/Government/Politics, I should take courses in Physics or Chemistry in college before applying for transfer?</p>
<p>I don't think so. I haven't taken foreign language courses in college yet and I spoke with an advisor who said that I could take the courses once I got to Harvard (if!). But, I think the fact that I took 3 years of French in high school fulfills the "transfer requirement" for now. As long as you took science in high school (which I'm sure you did) then I don't think it's a problem.</p>
<p>Umm...actually..I would strongly recommend taking at least one science course with lab.</p>
<p>I took no science and no math and got in</p>
