NCAA Eligibility
Students intending to play collegiate sports at a NCAA Division I or II school must register with the NCAA Initial Eligibility Center (preferably by the end of 10th grade). Students can start by registering for a free profile page account, but will need to transition to a certification account before the NCAA can certify the student as eligible for collegiate athletics.
**IMPORTANT TESTING UPDATE: as of January 11, 2023, the NCAA has permanently waived the test score requirement for students enrolling in Fall '23 and beyond. Please keep in mind that universities may still require test scores for admission (or students may choose to submit scores for test-optional schools).
