The judging process
This year, we’re giving away four awards: 1. Best Host (or hosts); 2. Best Overall Podcast; 3. Best Production; 4. Most Viral.
We use NPR’s Student Podcast Challenge judging criteria:
Information & Structure
Personality & Creativity
Production Quality
The Best Host is based on the highest score for Personality & Creativity.
The Best Overall Podcast is selected by weighting each score: Information & Structure (40%); Personality & Creativity (40%); Production Quality (20%).
The Best Production award is based on the highest score for Production Quality.
The Most Viral award is given to the student podcast that demonstrates the most social media activity and podcast downloads for a single episode.
Submissions are open until Wednesday, April 10, at 11:59 p.m. The awards are open to Quinnipiac University students ONLY, and the podcast needs to have been published between April 2023 and March 2025
