NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse

 

 

NCAA Clearinghouse Website

If students are interested in competing in athletics at the NCAA Division I or II level, certain requirements must be met. Fourteen (14) core credits must be completed with a minimum 2.0 or higher GPA.             

Core Courses       

For Division I the 14 core credits are as follows: 4 credits English, 2 credits math (algebra and geometry), 2 credits science, 2 credits social science, 1 credit of an additional English, math, or science, and 3 credits of additional core classes.                       

Test Scores                        

To qualify for Division I a student must have a sum score on the ACT of 68-86, depending on the student’s GPA. The lower the core GPA the higher the test score must be. For example: a student with a core GPA of 2.0 must have an 86 sum score on the ACT. A student with a 68 sum score on the ACT must have a core GPA of 2.5 or above. To qualify of Division II the student must have the minimum core GPA of 2.0 and an ACT sum score of 68. 

Registration                        

If students are interested in registering with the Clearinghouse they are encouraged to complete a form at the end of their junior year.  Students can register online at ncaaclearinghouse.org or request a paper application by calling 1-888-388-9748.  If  applying online, make sure that the signature page is printed out and bring it to the Registrar’s office.  Mrs. Brewster or Mrs. Faflick will check student curriculum, ACT scores and GPA.

Upon completion of the Initial Eligibility form the student should mail one copy with a $30.00 check payable to NCAA Clearinghouse. The remaining two forms need to be given to the Registrar, who will in turn forward a transcript to the Clearinghouse at the time of registration and again upon graduation from high school at which time final eligibility will be determined.
