Tuition is $3,725 for the residential option (including meals) and $3,095 for commuters. The program is open enrollment — admission is not merit-selective. International students are welcome and not required to obtain a visa or submit TOEFL scores for the Academies format. Students receive a Certificate of Participation upon completion.
In 2026, the Harvard Debate Council Summer Workshops will again serve as the official training site for the NSDA's USA World Schools Debate team as they prepare for the World Schools Debating Championships — a genuine credential that distinguishes the World Schools track from comparable summer programs.
