Student Speaker Competition

We invited the Class of 2025 to enter the Student Speaker Competition for a chance to address their classmates, and other members of the GW community, at Commencement on the National Mall—an #OnlyatGW opportunity of a lifetime.

Schools will review the submissions from their students and nominate one to proceed to the public online voting round that will be posted on this page from March 17 to 30. Any member of the GW community may vote in the online round.
