The second season of Pinoy Dream Academy formally began on June 14, 2008. Nikki Gil will reprise her role as the main host of this season, while Toni Gonzaga is expected to reprise her role as the Saturday Gala Night host. Billy Crawford will join this season as the host of the late afternoon edition Pinoy Dream Academy Über-ture.[1]

A new logo is also being used for this season, having an old-fashioned microphone and the word "Dream" using a different font than the rest of the title. Also, a new version of the theme song Awit ng Pangarap sang by first season winner Yeng Constantino is being used for this season.

Thirty-two potential scholars were introduced with their backgrounds documented their primer segment aired as part of Pinoy Big Brother: Teen Edition Plus. They were also interviewed on the radio segment Pinoy Dream Academy Dream Minute on WRR 101.9. These thirty-two will go through a primary elimination selection from which the final roster of scholars is chosen. These eliminations will be aired as a series of episodes called The Dream BIGins from June 9 to 13, 2008.

Added for that, auditions for "Little Dreamers," aged 6 to 10, had also been announced. It is unknown if the said junior competition will run during the second season or some later date. [2]

For the first time in history of PDA, it is aired on the North America.

[edit] Scholars

From the thirty-two potential scholars, the primary eliminations saw the number dwindle to twenty-five. From that number, the faculty re-examined the performances of the scholars to choose the final list of scholars who would enter the Academy. The final roster was announced one-by-one on the Grand Opening Night on June 14, 2008. Only fifteen were chosen entered the Academy on that day; the sixteenth chosen scholar backed out of the competition and the slot left behind would be occupied by one of four "wait-listers" to be decided by viewers. The wait-lister chosen to be the new sixteenth scholar would enter the Academy the next day.
