The long-awaited 2022 "Jeopardy!" National College Championship is finally here!

To make things even better for "Jeopardy!" fans, this tournament will appear on ABC Primetime, which means it will not interrupt regularly scheduled "Jeopardy!" gameplay.

Here's everything you need to know about the upcoming tournament!

Host Ken Jennings ceded the hosting podium back to former "The Big Bang Theory" star Mayim Bialik for regular gameplay this week and she is expected to maintain hosting duties next week as well.

Since she will also be hosting the National College Championship, it means that fans will get a double dose of Bialik each night!

The show will feature 36 students from undergraduate universities and colleges in the United States. The top prize is $250,000 dollars and the title of Jeopardy! National College Champion. The second-place prize is $100,000 dollars, and the third-place finisher takes home $50,000 dollars.

Fourth place will receive $35,000 dollars. The 8 semi-finalists will each win $20,000 dollars and the 24 quarter-finalists will each receive $10,000 dollars just for showing up!
