Before the announcement of the winners and after all squads have performed, a recap is shown during the telecast.

The tally sheet detailing the total number of points earned by all squads is posted on social media shortly after the announcement of the top three.

In 2009, the UAAP replaced the panel of judges with specialists from various cheerleading, dance, and gymnastics organizations.

In 2008, the criteria were changed to a more cheerleading-focused point system, providing a maximum score for each element of cheerleading and/or dancing.

The dance criteria, which also had a maximum of 100 points per judge, were subdivided into four sub-criteria: overall effectiveness, choreography, technique, and execution.
