Initial Eligibility
Prospective student-athletes who would like to participate in Division I athletics must register with the NCAA Eligibility Center and meet academic requirements while still in high school. Please refer to the Eligibility Center links below to ensure requirements are met to compete in first year.Â
Continuing Eligibility
Student-athletes at a Division I school must meet specific academic benchmarks, called progress-toward-degree requirements, to continue competing. The progress-toward-degree requirements guide student-athletes toward graduation. The standards ensure student-athletes take the appropriate steps to earn their degree and include everything from grade-point average to term-by-term and annual credit hour requirements.
Transfer Eligibility
Transfer student-athletes must meet certain academic benchmarks in addition to progress-toward-degree requirements to compete during their first year at a four-year school.  Students who do not meet these benchmarks may seek an NCAA waiver. These benchmarks are built upon research and better position student-athletes to succeed at the four-year institution.  Please refer to the link below to see the different requirements for the type of transfer a student-athlete will be. Postgraduate transfers should consult with their compliance offices to understand their requirements.Â
