What is the World Scholar’s Cup (WSC)?
The World Scholar’s Cup (WSC) is an international academic team competition that promotes critical thinking, collaboration, debate, and writing across subjects like history, science, and literature. Students begin at Regional Rounds, where teams compete locally and can qualify for the next stage. Successful teams advance to Global Rounds, large international events that bring together students from many countries for higher-level competition and cultural exchange. Top performers at Globals are invited to the Tournament of Champions (ToC), the final round held at Yale University, which combines intense academic challenges with a unique university-campus experience.
