The Glee Project is a reality series in which twelve contestants are competing for a role with a 7-episode story arc (or more) on Glee. Of course, a series of competitions stand in the way before the final decision will be made.

Over 10 episodes, the contestants will be pared down through a series of “homework assignments” orchestrated by the Glee creators that will assess their singing, dancing, and acting. Those from the Glee team who will make the final decision on the winner include writer Ryan Murphy.

Cast members also make appearances as guest mentors in each episode to help guide the contestants and offer their expertise. Each episode includes a homework assignment and a music video shoot. The winner of the homework assignment receives the starring role in the week's music video as well as one-on-one time with the guest mentor from the Glee cast. The second season of The Glee Project premiered on June 5, 2012.
