Salaam Irem,

You should definately send in the application.

We have a really cohesive HIS (Harvard Islamic Society), Ramadhan was excellent and as a grad student you definately will not feel left out. There is no real PSA, most Pakis are part of the HIS. Although there is some talk of starting up a Paki org.

You should have no problem getting around without a car, in fact you really dont need one. The T (Metro) is more than enough. Plus parking is ridiculous..I know this because my wife goes nuts trying to find parking whenever she visits.

I don't find it snobby, although some may say it is upper classish. There many decent folks in school that are both Pakistani and Muslim. If you have any particular questions about HBS, feel free to ask.

One thing I can assure you, is that the education and the contacts are top notch. Atleast in the business world, HBS carries a lot of weight.*
