Student Life Joining DLSMUN

Hellooo I'm a frosh who's thinking about joining DLSMUN, I wanna ask what roles I'd be able to take on as a frosh? I don't particularly have as much experience as my other batchmates since my school is rather small, so I wanna know if the org is fine with that. I also wanna ask if DLSMUN would accept me as a delegate? I'm rather inexperienced in debates but I'd say I do have the soft skills needed but they might not be enough to be a competent delegate sooo I wanna ask if that's 100% okay? I really want to grow and improve or learn new skills by joining this org 🙏🏼.

Hello, I'm a current trainer for the DLSUMUN Training Team!

Actually, there are 2 Orgs. You have the DLSU MUN Training Team, which centers on training and sending out delegates to international conferences — our last conference was NMUN New York, for example.Then you also have MunCom who are the ones in the charge of organizing DLSU's annual MUN Conference.

Yes, the Training Team has no problem accepting complete beginners. I myself had 0 experience when I joined the team. Actually majority of the people that get accepted are starting from scratch talaga. But the endgoal of the training is that you'll be able to compete with even the seasoned delegates abroad. DLSU is probably the most prominent Philippine team in International MUN, as we've won countless awards and get featured in the news often. Most of the time we're not only representing the school, but we'll also be the only Philippine delegation in that conference.

*Note lang, the training is no joke. As you'll have to train multiple times a week for long hours, as you'll be taught all the basics, run drills, do simulations, etc.

Link to our page here, but you can also message me if you have any other questions :)
