Can you get into Harvard without being an IB student?

Yes, absolutely. Harvard, like other top universities, accepts students from a wide range of educational backgrounds. While the International Baccalaureate (IB) program is rigorous and often seen favorably by admissions committees, it's by no means a requirement. Many successful Harvard applicants come from high schools offering the Advanced Placement (AP) program, A-Levels, or other rigorous curricula. Harvard's admissions process focuses on a holistic review of the applicant, considering many factors beyond their high school program.
