The NCAA Eligibility Center has launched a new website at NCAA.org/playcollegesports to help high school student-athletes successfully transition to college. The enhanced online content gives student-athletes and counselors a broad look at the initial-eligibility process and detailed information about common initial-eligibility situations. Student-athletes are guided through current and upcoming initial-eligibility requirements, recruiting guidelines, and timelines for staying on track in high school. Additional webpages address eligibility situations unique to international, home-school and non-traditional students.
A wide range of frequently-asked questions addressing issues from academic and amateurism eligibility to high school and core-course review are easily searchable and will be expanded in the future.
A new section for high school staff at NCAA.org/eligibilitycenter introduces the initial-eligibility process to counselors who are new to the NCAA and provides quick tips and important documents for seasoned counselors. High school staff and athletics personnel will find immediate access to initial-eligibility printouts, videos and tutorials at NCAA.org/student-athletes/future/educational-resources.
Please share NCAA.org/playcollegesports and NCAA.org/eligibilitycenter with your student-athletes, their families and your colleagues. Find us on Twitter @NCAA_EC. Stay current with initial-eligibility news by subscribing to the High School Newsletter
