Does Harvard accept 4 on AP?

No, Harvard University generally does not accept AP scores of 4 for course credit or advanced standing, requiring a score of 5 for most subjects, and even then, they primarily use scores for placement or fulfilling specific prerequisites, not for reducing the total number of courses needed for graduation. A score of 5 might help you skip introductory requirements (like a foreign language), but you still need to take the required 32 courses at Harvard, and scores of 4 are typically not enough for this "advanced standing".
