Meet CBI’s Student Prod. Awards Finalists!

• College Broadcasters, Inc. (CBI) is pleased to announce the national finalists in the 2025 CBI National Student Production Awards. The complete list of finalists is posted HERE.

Awards will be presented as part of the annual National Student Electronic Media Convention, to be held Oct. 22-25 in Denver at the Embassy Suites Downtown. The National Student Production Awards honor the outstanding work of students at campus radio, television, and digital media outlets across 40 categories — including promos, news reporting, best DJ, comedy, entertainment, sports, podcasts, documentaries, outlet of the year and more for video and audio — as well as general categories in station imaging, website design, and social media presence.

Up to four finalists were chosen in each of the categories, out of more than 900 submissions nationwide. Winners and finalists will be honored at the awards presentation.

“Each year, our finalists demonstrate the creativity, resilience, and innovation that make student media such a vital part of higher education,” said Anabella Poland, President of College Broadcasters, Inc. “The 2025 entries reflect not only technical excellence, but also a deep commitment to storytelling and community impact. We’re thrilled to celebrate the remarkable achievements of these students in Denver this fall.”

Registration is now open for the CBI National Student Electronic Media Convention at askcbi.org/denver.

At this year’s event in Denver, CBI is hosting BEA On-Location, giving attendees access to two dynamic conferences for the price of one. The convention will bring together students, advisers, and industry professionals for sessions on media trends, hands-on training, networking, and the celebration of student achievement.
