Hogwarts Legacy is full of all sorts of hidden secrets and details to discover, scattered throughout the highlands. If you are not careful in your search, you can easily miss some of the smaller objects hidden around the castle. One of those hard-to-locate items is the admission key. Obtaining this key will give you access to a hidden section of the castle that few people know about. This will also give you an achievement. This guide will show you how to get and use the Hogwarts Legacy Admission Key.
Where to find the Hogwarts Legacy Admission Key
Before you can hope to get your hands on the admission key, you’ll first need to progress through the game to the point where you’ll unlock the Alohomora spell. After that, you’ll need to collect enough Demiguise Moons for Gladwin Moon to upgrade his Alohomora spell to level three. Once this is complete, exit the castle. It doesn’t matter where you go, as long as you can use your broom.

Land here and head up the stairs to find a door with a level three lock. Open the door and enter to find yourself in the director’s office. The entrance key is on the desk in the room.
