Event Deadlines
January 11, 2024 - optional deadline
Students should complete the test without outside resources, in 1 hour. Each student should take the test individually.
Students are not required to meet this deadline for State Conference competition in this event. However, it is very much still recommended that you do so for practice.
If advisors are using the test to determine placement on the team, they should contact Jennifer Smith at jsmith@washingtontsa.org for proctoring and results information.
March 2024
Each team member will take a test on Wednesday evening. Each student must bring a laptop that can connect to the wifi with a password.
Team members will take the test individually, and scores will be averaged for teams.
Semifinalist teams will compete in a live oral round.
Washington TSA Rules
To compete, students must belong to an affiliated TSA chapter, register for competition by December 15, 2023, and pay the $30 competition fee. Participants must also meet the January 11 event deadlines (see above) to “qualify” for the Washington TSA State Conference in March.
To compete at the WTSA State Conference, students must have been registered in December, met the Jan. 11 deadline, and then register in February for the State Conference ($420/$500 per student package price (4 or 2 students per room)).
At the state level, 1 team of 3 per chapter may compete.
