NCAA / NAIA Requirements
Families and students are responsible for knowing the NCAA and/or NAIA requirements and deadlines. Students who have the potential of participating in athletics at the NCAA or NAIA level need to log on to the appropriate website to find out what the academic eligibility requirements are to be certified by the NCAA or NAIA. If students choose courses that do not meet the requirements, they could be risking eligibility. Additional information can be found on the NCAA website at www.eligibilitycenter.org and the NAIA website at www.playnaia.org.
