Late Night Post: Quizbowl Post-College?
I'm just curious: Is there quizbowl post-college? Be it leagues(an affiliated QB league would be something else lol), tournaments, or maybe the one-off trivia night, is there a use for quizbowl post-college?

The short answer is that in some regions there are open events a couple times a year (particularly during the summer) where post-college players are eligible to play. That, and volunteering to staff events.EnviroBen13 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 19, 2025 11:44 pm I'm just curious: Is there quizbowl post-college?

It is also possible to simply remain a perpetual college student, get multiple degrees, attend graduate school, et cetera. Results may vary; check the NAQT and ACF eligibility rules for more.

To add to this, most opens are not at the level of Chicago Open, and many are at what would be considered "normal" collegiate difficulty. COOT and NASAT are commonly used for summer opens.
