I recently received the Academic All American award for speech & debate. Is this going to look impressive to colleges? I know only 7 people in my debate district have this title, and I come from one of the biggest debate districts in the country.
Could this help my admissions/scholarships chances to state schools?
It’s a nice honor, definitely worth listing on college and scholarship applications. It shows commitment to speech and debate while maintaining high academic standards. My D was also an NSDA Academic All American, so I know what the requirements are to get it. Hopefully you are combining it with other factors like a strong GPA, rank, test scores, LOR’s, essays, and other EC’s.
