National Collegiate Athletic Association
(NCAA)
 

Students entering any college or university on or after August 1, 2005 and wishing to play Division I or II sports, must register with the NCAA prior to graduation.

Students can register with the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse anytime in and after their junior year. At the time of registration, a transcript and SAT or ACT scores should also be sent to the clearinghouse.

Students must have a GPA of 2.0 or higher in 14 core academic courses and at least a 68 on the ACT or an 820 on the SAT I. This means that a student must have 14 core courses with a 2.0 or higher to be eligible to practice, play and receive financial aid at a Division I or II school.

Students must complete the following:
• At least 3 years of English;
• At least 2 years of math (at the level of Algebra I or above);
• At least 2 years of natural or physical science (including 1 lab course);
• At least 2 years of additional courses in English, math or natural or physical science;
• At least 2 years of social science and;
• Two additional academic courses in any of the above areas, or foreign language.

Courses taken in 8th grade cannot be used to satisfy NCAA requirements. All NCAA approved courses for initial eligibility are listed in the school counseling office.

Students with disabilities must be able to provide:
(a) a current signed copy of a professional evaluation report that states the student’s disability and
(b) a copy of the student’s IEP, or Section 504 Plan that relates to accommodations received by the student with the disability.

Courses approved for students with disabilities can also be found in the school counseling office.
