NCAA Requirements

Students planning to participate in sports at the post-secondary level need to register with the NCAA Clearinghouse after completion of their junior year. Registration should be completed on-line at www.eligibilitycenter.org. Students are advised to include the NCAA on their ACT/SAT registration form using code 9999. Upon completion of their junior year, students should request to have a copy of their transcript sent to the Clearinghouse.

Remember that high school graduation requirements differ from the course requirements that determine eligibility in a Division I or II sport in college. Please refer to the “Guide for the College Bound Student-Athlete” that can be found at the website listed above to understand core area requirements. In addition, it is the student’s responsibility to enroll in the NCAA-approved courses; a list of approved courses can also be found at the eligibility center. If you have additional questions, please see your school counselor.

Note: High school graduation requirements and the course requirements to play Division I or II sports in college differ. See your school counselor for specific information.
