As part of the admission process, applicants are required to have an interview, and this is usually done in conjunction with a campus visit, also known as shadow day. Visiting campus is a great way to experience all that Western Reserve Academy has to offer, and it's also important for the admission staff to get an opportunity to learn more about you.

During a visit to campus, you will tour campus with a current student, observe a class and interview with an admission officer. In addition, we like to spend time talking privately with your parent(s) so that we can discuss your questions about attending WRA.

When you make an appointment, please let us know if you want to learn more about a specific program, such as orchestra, theatre, science, tennis, swimming or lacrosse. If we know if advance, we will try to arrange for you to meet with teachers or coaches involved in that area.

Scheduling Your Visit

Before you visit and interview, we must have a completed application, applicant questionnaire and parent questionnaire.

Visits and on-campus interviews occur on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and the typical visit will begin at 8:40 a.m.

The following dates are open for visits and on-campus interviews, but please call the Admission Office as soon as possible to schedule a date, as the office can take only a certain number of visitors on each day:

• Now through March 16
  
• April 7 through May 21

To schedule your campus visit, please call the Admission Office at 330.650.9717.
