Interviews, Tours, and Events

 

Applicant Interviews 

Interviews are an optional part of the application process. These optional one-on-one conversations give us the opportunity to get to know you, and they’re a chance for you to address your specific interests and questions. Each applicant can expect to spend 20 to 30 minutes talking with a CA interviewer, with around 20 minutes following for parents or guardians. 

We offer interviews in person on campus as well as over Zoom. We do not recommend one format over the other—please choose the format that works best for your family.

Due to the high demand for interviews, we encourage you to schedule your interview as soon as possible. To request an interview, please visit our Scheduling Page.

We are delighted to offer a range of opportunities to learn more about Concord Academy, some on-campus and some virtual.  Please select from those that will be most helpful and informative for you, and know that we do not expect applicants to participate in every type of event.
