Does the National Cathedral School have parent interviews?

Yes, National Cathedral School (NCS) does include a parent/guardian interview or conversation as part of the admissions process.

This meeting is typically scheduled after the application is submitted through the Ravenna platform and is required for all applicant families. The purpose is to:

• Learn more about the student from the parent or guardian’s perspective
• Discuss the family’s educational values and goals
• Provide a space to ask questions about the NCS experience
• Help admissions staff assess the overall fit between the student, the family, and the school community

These conversations are warm and conversational—not meant to be intimidating—and are an important part of NCS’s holistic admissions process.
