You need to submit transcripts, SAT scores, TOEFL scores, and letters of recommendation. You'll need to apply in December to start the following September. Harvard admits fewer than 6% of applicants - you really need to find a way to stand out. If they only accept one student from your country, is it going to be you?

It is extremely difficult to get into Harvard. It is a very selective private university and does not accept all applicants -- not even close. However, the best way to start, to demonstrate that you have initiative and interest, is to make your inquiries at Harvard itself. Since you are already 21, you may be talking about postgraduate study in a specific field rather than earning an undergraduate degree. I'm giving you the Harvard website, and if you are hoping to apply to earn an undergraduate degree, then you should click on "Admissions and Aid" at the top right. You should be given a way to contact the Admissions Office among other information. If your hope is to apply to earn a postgraduate degree in a specific field, then you will need to locate the school or department on the site and contact it directly. Click on "Schools".
