We will take the most qualified 24 applicants. Applicants will be admitted on a rolling basis.
The Georgetown Debate Seminar is designed for rising seniors and juniors with at least one full year of open/varsity experience in policy cross-examination debate.
While many of our expected students will be very experienced national circuit debaters, please do not let this intimidate you! Having led over half a dozen labs, I assure you that labs benefit from broad diversity in debate region, styles, and life experience.
Many of our students will attend another institute in addition to the GDS, but this is neither a prerequisite nor an expectation.
If you are attending another camp with conflicting dates, please tell us in advance so we can attempt to accommodate you.
