What are the requirements to get into the Harvard Computer Science school?

GPA? SAT? ACT? Required classes/courses? What are the steps/requirements to get into the computer science field, basically?
There is no Harvard CS school. For undergrad there is Harvard college and Harvard extension school. They both give liberal arts degrees – not CS degrees.
Harvard college is insanely hard to get into. You basically need nearly a 4 GPA, near perfect sats, and killer extracurriculars. Even then your odds will only be about 10%.
Harvard extension school is however another mater. It has an open admission policy:

To get into CS you don’t need to go to Harvard – any reliable school will do just fine.
