List of episodes

America's Next Top Model, Cycle 19 (also known as America's Next Top Model: College Edition) is the nineteenth season of America's Next Top Model and the thirteenth season to air on The CW. America's Next Top Model, Cycle 19 features thirteen new hopefuls, all of which are currently enrolled in higher education and it premiered on August 24, 2012. Cycle 19 is set to air in a new timeslot, Fridays at 8 P.M. Tyra Banks and Kelly Cutrone returned as judges for this cycle. Additionally, casting was brought back for this season for the first time since Cycle 15. This cycle also does not feature guest judges at panel, and the episode titles were changed from the guest judge name to "The Girl..." which was applied from Cycles 1 through 9.

The catch-phrase for this cycle is "Only One Can Be Top of the Class."

Show and prize changes

The show has undergone many major changes for this season. Most notably, judge and fashion photographer Nigel Barker, runway coach Miss J. Alexander, and photo shoot creative director Jay Manuel were dismissed from the show after the previous cycle in an attempt to revitalize the show. They were replaced by British model Rob Evans and Filipino fashion blogger Bryanboy. Johnny Wujek also joins the crew as the new creative director of photo shoots. Evans and Bryanboy join the judging panel with Banks and Cutrone, marking the return of four permanent judges since Cycle 12. Another change is the incorporation of public voting as a factor in eliminations. The contestants now receive numerical scores for their performances in the challenges and photo shoots. These scores, along with an average score from the fans, are added up to determine who stays in the competition every week during eliminations. The girl with the lowest combined score is thus eliminated from the competition. However, for the first six weeks the eliminated girls will still be able to participate in the photo shoots, and their photos were also available to be voted on by the public. The girl with the highest social media score will be allowed to rejoin the competition.

This is also the first cycle to feature an entire cast of all-new contestants since Cycle 16 (Cycle 17 (All-Stars) featured only returning contestants from previous cycles, while Cycle 18 (British Invasion) also featured seven American models against seven previous contestants from the United Kingdom).

The prizes for this cycle are (only three of which are new):

• A modeling contract with LA Models & NY Model Management.
• The face of the America’s Next Top Model perfume product "Dream Come True".
• A spread in Nylon magazine.
• Campaigns with Nine West and Smashbox Cosmetics.
• A US$100,000 cash prize.

The following prizes have been removed:

• A guest correspondent placement with the Extra news magazine.
• A fashion spread in Vogue Italia, and both the cover and a spread in Beauty In Vogue.
• Production of a music composition that wil be performed by the winner that will then be released as a record single by CBS Records. and
• A US$100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics.

Episode summaries

The Girl Who Makes The Grade

First aired August 24, 2012

The semi-finalists met for the first time, and enjoyed the party for the casting of Cycle 19. Tyra introduced the new judges for the cycle - Rob Evans and photo shoot director Johnny Wujek. She also revealed that the fans would take part in deciding who would be eliminated each week. The models were introduced to the public via runway, and later had a photo shoot in their bikinis. The girls met the judges for one-on-one interviews at panel. Memorable contestants included Victoria, who was home schooled her entire life, Brittany who loved Disney, Laura who is the daughter of actor John James, Jessie who accidentally flashed her booty during the runway challenge, and Kristin, who was a former mean girl in high-school. Tyra then announced the thirteen girls who would compete and live together in the top model house.
