NCAA

The NCAA Eligibility Center certifies whether prospective college athletes are eligible to play sports at NCAA Division I or II institutions. It reviews the student-athlete's academic record, SAT or ACT scores, and amateur status to ensure conformity with NCAA rules.

All High School athletes who may play Div 1 or 2 must register with NCAA by the end of their Junior year .

Students must also meet with their counselors to make sure they are taking the right courses to qualify for NCAA . Email your counselors to make an appointment to make sure you are taking the necessary steps to meet eligibility.
