For Harvard undergraduates only.
SCUSA is an exciting opportunity for Harvard undergraduates interested in learning about topics in US foreign and domestic policy and in international affairs. Students may apply to participate in the annual Student Conference on United States Affairs (SCUSA) at the United States Military Academy in West Point, New York, along with other undergraduates from all over the United States. The four-day conference takes place November 1–4, 2023. The theme of SCUSA 2023 is “Innovation and the Future of American Foreign Policy.” Over 200 undergraduates from around the country choose a roundtable on a particular issue or area of the world to participate in during the conference and discuss and present the results of their discussion at the end of the conference.
For more information on this year's conference, please visit the SCUSA website.
