The following is a list of the scores obtained during the Miss Universe competition.

Methodological selection Over the time, Miss Universe has established different evaluation processes. From its first edition in 1952 until the 26th edition in 1977, the scores issued during the final telecast by the selection committee were not made public.

Final telecast

Beginning in 1978, the scores issued by the selection committee were broadcast live for the first time by the CBS television network. The selection process was characterized by the average of the scores, cumulative by round, both in swimsuit, evening gown (until 2002), and interview (until 1999).

Furthermore, from the 1990s to 2000, the scores of each member of the selection committee were made public individually. Similarly, the Top 5 or 6 finalists from that decade were subjected to a final interview, which was televised only since 1992.

Starting in 2003 in conjunction with the switch to NBC television network, the rounds in each competition area were eliminatory rather than cumulative. However, the scores were not made public again until 2007 through 2010.

Since 2011, both the scores and the evaluation system used by the selection committee have not been made public again. However, there have been certain exceptions. In 2011, although the jury's scores were not televised, the scores previously given by the fans on the pageant's website were broadcast, even though these had no impact on the final result or the candidates' ranking. Meanwhile, in 2013, through the app "You be the Judge," fans were able to compare their own scores with those given by the selection committee live; being evident again the average between the swimsuit and evening gown rounds.

Preliminary competition

The preliminary swimsuit and evening gown competition scores were released from the 1979 through 1997 editions, with the exception of the 1985 and 1989 editions. Interview scores were subsequently included starting in 1990.
