The 2012 NSC took place on June 9-10 at Washington University in Saint Louis, with 60 teams participating. Hunter defeated Bellarmine in a one-game final. Centennial (Georgia) came in third and IMSA A came in fourth.
The 60 teams were split up into prelim brackets composed of seven or eight teams, from which the top two of each bracket went to two playoff brackets and the top four from each playoff bracket played in crossover "superplayoff" games, implementing the 2010 format with four fewer teams. The tournament was successfully directed by Matt Weiner.
The 2012 NSC was the site of the first annual National Quizbowl Awards, hosted by Dave Madden.
