To participate in NCAA athletics during college, a student must be declared eligible by the NCAA Clearinghouse. All students that are interested in collegiate sports should go through the eligibility process.
When Should Students Register?
Students may register at any time, but we recommend that they register during their sophomore year. The registration website is www.eligibilitycenter.org. The NCAA Eligibility Center will evaluate a student’s academic credentials once the following information has been received, and the student has had his/her status requested by an NCAA member institution:
- Completed online registration
- Fee payment (Fee may be waived if student qualifies for SAT or ACT fee waiver)
- SAT and/or ACT test score on file from the respective testing agency
- Transcript(s) from all schools or programs attended
