Format

Tawag ng Tanghalan: The School Showdown features student contestants from different universities in the Philippines, representing the universities they are currently enrolled in. Similar to the rivalry between Ateneo and La Salle, the season will feature battles between student contenders from different universities competing to become the season's grand champion.

The season's format, similarly structured from the second kids season, is divided into four phases of "examinations":

Still, the criteria for judging remains the same: 50% for voice quality (includes intonation, enunciation, voice projection and technique); and the other 50% for the overall performance (includes timing, mastery of lyrics, stage presence and audience impact).

Prizes

The student contender with the higher score during the daily rounds will receive ₱10,000 while the losing student contender will receive ₱5,000. The weekly finalist that will advance to the semifinals will receive an additional ₱25,000 while the other weekly finalists will receive ₱5,000.

Phase I: Entrance Examinations

Phase I, dubbed as the Entrance Examinations is equivalent to the Daily Rounds, where two student contenders from two different universities will battle in a head-to-head challenge for a slot in the weekly finals.
