This is the first season to lower the age of contestant limit down to only 15 years old, though the upper age limit is not scheduled to change, which still remains at 25 years old.

The judges will eliminate 88 of them in the first week concert, to only Top 12 for the eleven weeks competition.
Like the Season 6 the immunity idol still could help the contestants being safe from the elimination in the event of, if they received the least popular vote of the week. However, in the beginning of the concert week 7, it was announced that this immune rule would be stopped, which would be effective since week 7.
There were two channel for auditions, Live and Online. The contestants were required to between the ages of 15 and 25 years old who are not embedded with music recording contracts.
The Live Auditions were held in the following cities:
The Top 100 finalists (50 from live audition and 50 from online audition) were announced and got a chance to practice themselves for a show in the AF house for a week. The final audition was also the first week concert of this season, which was held at Thunder Dome, Muang Thong Thani.
After their show, the Top 100 finalists were cut off to Top 50, and Top 25, which mixed of 12 boys and 13 girls. At the end of the concert, the winners of AF in season 1-6 came to announce the list of Top 12 contestants of this season. And lastly the result was shown with 6 boys and 6 girls would still in the running for this eleven weeks.
In this season, there was no any contestant from the online audition could get through Top 12. This is the first time since Academy Fantasia started to extend a channel of audition to an online registration (since season 4).
It was noticed there were many 18-year-old contestants get through this Top 12, Grape (V2), New (V4), Natty (V5), & Pum (V7) all are 15-year-old girls, while Boss (V10) & Por (V12) are 16-year-old boys, Paprae (V9) & Mark (V11) are both 17.
