IQBT Undergraduate Championship Qualification Event

International Quiz Bowl Tournaments, LLC will be hosting a qualifying event for the IQBT Undergraduate Championship on Thursday through Sunday, November 10-13.

This event will consist of 60 bonuses played by each team, much like the qualifier for 2021 ACF Nationals. The difficulty of this set will be three dots per the College Quiz Bowl Calendar Difficulty Scale.

The entry fee will be $50 per team. Teams can be made up of up to four players, all of whom must be undergraduate students as defined below. Schools can register multiple teams.

Staffers will be paid $15 per qualification session read, assuming an hour per session. If sessions take longer, pay will be adjusted on a $15/hr basis.

Editors will be announced in the near future.

Information about eligibility

Teams may only be made up of teams that qualify as undergraduate students, per the following information.

A competition year is defined as beginning August 1 of a year and concludes on the subsequent July 31.

A postsecondary degree is an associate’s, bachelor’s, doctorate, or master’s degree.

An accredited school is one that offers classes towards earning a postsecondary degree.

A class is a course taken for credit at an accredited school. Classes include practical experiences such as internships or work placement programs. Classes may be taken online.

An undergraduate student is defined as:
• Having graduated from high school or have completed a GED.
• Having not graduated with a postsecondary degree (excluding associate’s degrees taking fewer than four years to earn) before the competition year.
• Having completed no more than ten semesters of post-high school education.
• Taking two classes over the competition year

To compete in the fall semester, an undergraduate student must be taking two “normal” classes worth of credit at the time, where, for a traditional, two semester per academic year college, each class would be worth 3.0 credit hours.

To compete in the spring semester, an undergraduate student must be taking or have taken a total of two “normal” classes worth of credit over the academic year, where, for a traditional, two semester per academic year college, each class would be worth 3.0 credit hours. Students who fulfill this requirement and graduated after the fall semester are eligible in the spring semester.
