At our Fall Open House , visitors tour the campus with a student guide, meet FA faculty members, and view the work of our students in the fine arts, music, photography, and woodworking. Current parents also attend to share their perspective on FA. There is no need to RSVP.

The Admissions Coffee Hours are drop-in information sessions where interested families can meet a few of our teachers, our Director of Admissions and/or Headmaster, and current students and parents from the area in which the coffee hour takes place. If you are interested in attending a coffee hour, please RSVP to Mike Earley or Donna Garcia at 508-457-9696.

The Scholarship Exam and Open House provides a comprehensive insight into our school. A panel made up of one FA student from each grade answers questions about life at Falmouth Academy . Following the panel, the prospective students take the scholarship exam while every member of the faculty makes a presentation to the parents in attendance. The top three scorers on the exam receive $2,000 scholarships toward their first year's tuition at FA. The results of the scholarship exam have no bearing on admissions or our standard financial aid program. We ask that you register your child in advance for the Scholarship Exam by calling the Admissions Office at 508-457-9696.

The Spring Open House is designed to help current 5th graders prepare for the admissions process, which takes place during the 6th grade year. However, families with children of any age are welcome to attend. Student tour guides, most of them from the 7th grade, conduct tours of the school. Visitors have the opportunity to meet students, faculty members, and current parents. This Open House runs from 5:30-7:30 p.m., and is followed by the Spring Play. There is no need to RSVP.
