Admissions

Visiting Burke

Meet us at Burke.

We have four main ways to visit Burke during the admissions process. Visiting is not a requirement – just an excellent way to get to explore the school and ask all your questions!

  1. Small group tours for families during the school day
  2. Interactive open houses for families on the weekends (one in October, one in November)
  3. Shadow visits for students during the school day
  4. Revisit events for admitted students in March

Note: Families can have their admissions interview in-person at Burke, but we consider that separate from a visit.

How to sign up.

To sign up for an event at Burke, you'll need to create an account in Ravenna, an online admissions platform for independent schools. Once logged in, go to the Directory, click on Edmund Burke School to expand our listing, and then click the "Upcoming Events" button:


 

Meet us on the road.

Our admissions team travels around the greater Washington region during the fall and early winter, and we're happy to connect with you off-campus too. Here's where we'll be in fall / winter 2025:
