Intermediate/Advanced Class
    Supporting Documents Submission

    NOTES​​​
    • If you have not fulfilled the requirements listed here, you will be asked to pick classes from the returning beginner classes. Anyone who is new to our program and started in new beginner speech or debate must enroll in beginner returning classes. There is no exception to this policy. 
    • If you were not in the intermediate classes last semester (new student to GSA, GSA student in our returning beginner classes, etc), we will follow the procedure outline in our requirement document. If you meet the requirement/threshold for automatic advancement , you will be notified. If you want to be considered for review, we will ask that you turn in everything we have asked for in order for you to be considered. Incomplete applications on deadline date will result in us automatically denying you for review/consideration.
    • Note: anyone from our current intermediate classes who is failing to meet the requirements of the intermediate class can be denied continuation. Please ensure you have fulfilled the requirements by the end of the class. The class expectations are there for a reason and we ask that parents and students abide by them if they plan to be in the class or we do reserve the right to move you.

This should be a compete set of ballots from atleast 2 of the most recent tournaments. This should include the good AND the bad.
    3. VIDEO PERFORMANCE - Upload a video of you reading your cases or performing your speech. Google Drive or Youtube links are fine. You can also use your recent tournament recording if any.

    CLASS #1
    CLASS #2
     ​The CLASS #2 upload fields are only necessary if you're applying for both speech and debate or applying for two different speech categories. ​Make sure the title specifies the event so we can forward the link to the coaches accordingly.
