The 2012–2013 ISU Junior Grand Prix will be the 16th season of the series of junior international competitions organized by the International Skating Union. It will be the junior-level complement to the 2012–13 ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating contested by senior-level skaters. Skaters will compete in the disciplines of men's singles, ladies singles, pair skating, and ice dancing.
Skaters will earn points toward qualifying for the final at each of the seven Junior Grand Prix events. The top six skaters/teams in the series from each discipline will meet at the 2012–2013 Junior Grand Prix Final, to be held concurrently with the senior final.

Qualifying
Skaters who reached the age of 13 by July 1, 2012 but have not turned 19 (singles and females of the other two disciplines) or 21 (male pair skaters and ice dancers) are eligible to compete on the junior circuit. Unlike the senior Grand Prix, skaters for the JGP are not seeded by the ISU. The number of entries allotted to each ISU member federation is determined by their skaters' placements at the previous season's Junior World Championships in each respective discipline.
A possibility for pairs to compete on both the junior and senior Grand Prix series in the same season was removed before the 2012–2013 season.[1]

Junior Grand Prix Final qualification and qualifiers
Qualification rules
At each event, skaters earn points toward qualification for the Junior Grand Prix Final. Following the 7th event, the top six highest scoring skaters/teams advance to the Final. The points earned per placement are as follows:
Placement | Points (Singles/Dance) | Points (Pairs) |
---|---|---|
1st | 15 | 15 |
2nd | 13 | 13 |
3rd | 11 | 11 |
4th | 9 | 9 |
5th | 7 | 7 |
6th | 5 | 5 |
7th | 4 | 4 |
8th | 3 | 3 |
9th | 2 | – |
10th | 1 | – |
There are seven tie-breakers in cases of a tie in overall points:
- Highest placement at an event. If a skater placed 1st and 3rd, the tiebreaker is the 1st place, and that beats a skater who placed 2nd in both events.
- Highest combined total scores in both events. If a skater earned 200 points at one event and 250 at a second, that skater would win in the second tie-break over a skater who earned 200 points at one event and 150 at another.
- Participated in two events.
- Highest combined scores in the free skating/free dancing portion of both events.
- Highest individual score in the free skating/free dancing portion from one event.
- Highest combined scores in the short program/short dance of both events.
- Highest number of total participants at the events.
If there is still a tie, the tie is considered unbreakable and the tied skaters all advance to the Junior Grand Prix Final.
