The purpose of this study is to identify specific burnout patterns among Korean students. Using a cluster analysis procedure and the Maslach Burnout Inventory–Student Survey, four clusters were identified: (1) distressed group; (2) laissez‐faire group; (3) persevering group; and (4) well‐functioning group. In addition, the results of categorical regression analysis indicated that self‐esteem and Grade Point Average (GPA) were good discriminators between the four clusters. Specifically, students who self‐identified as not experiencing burnout (well‐functioning group) were found to have the highest scores on GPA and positive self‐esteem. Practical implications for educators are discussed.
