Instructions

The NCAA has approved the following courses for use in establishing the
initial-eligibility certification status of student-athletes from this school. Some
course titles may begin with one of the following prefixes. These prefixes are
defined as follows:

= Only students who have received proper NCAA approval for their
diagnosed learning disability may receive credit for these approved
courses.
! A student will receive no more than one NCAA mathematics credit
for the successful completion of any two courses so noted.
!! A student will receive NCAA mathematics credit according to the
unique credit values noted.
> A student will receive no more than one unit of NCAA
natural/physical science credit for the successful completion of all
courses so noted.
>> A student will receive no more than one and one-half units of
NCAA natural/physical science credit for the successful completion
of all courses so noted.
>>> A student will receive no more than two units of NCAA
natural/physical science credit for the successful completion of all
courses so noted.

Courses designated with a '=' symbol are courses that may be used only by
students with a diagnosed disability. Please note, not all high schools will
have courses with this designation. Also, in order for a student to receive
credit for a course designed for students with disabilities, the student must
have provided verification of his or her disability status by presenting to the
NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse either: (1) a nonstandard ACT or SAT
score; or (2) notice of disability designation by the NCAA Disability Services
staff.
NCAA legislation permits a student to receive credit for a core course only
one time. As a result, if a student repeats a core course, the student will only
receive credit once for the core course, and the highest grade earned in the
course will be included in the calculation of the student's core course grade
point average. Likewise, if a student completes a course that is duplicative in
content with another core course, the student will only receive credit for one of
the duplicative courses, and the course with the highest grade earned will be
included in the calculation of the student's core course grade point average.

Requirements
Division I
2007 - 2008
If you enroll in a Division I college before August 1, 2008, and want
to participate in athletics or receive an athletics scholarship during
your first year, you must: • Graduate from high school; • Complete these 14 core courses:
- 4 years of English
- 2 years of math (algebra 1 or higher)
- 2 years of natural or physical science (including one year of lab
science if offered by your high school)
- 1 extra year of English, math or natural or physical science
- 2 years of social science
- 3 years of extra core courses (from any category above, or
foreign language, nondoctrinal religion or philosophy); • Earn a minimum required grade-point average in your core
courses; and • Earn a combined SAT or ACT sum score that matches your corecourse
grade-point average on the test score sliding scale on
this page (for example, a 2.400 core-course grade-point average
needs an 860 SAT).

Note: Computer science courses can be used as core courses only

if your high school grants graduation credit in math or natural or
physical science for them, and if the courses appear on your high
school's core-course list as math or science courses.
You will be a qualifier if you meet the academic requirements
listed above. As a qualifier, you: • Can practice or compete for your college or university during
your first year of college; • Can receive an athletics scholarship during your first year of
college; and • Can play four seasons in your sport if you maintain your eligibility
from year to year.

You will be a nonqualifier if you do not meet the academic

requirements listed above. As a nonqualifier, you: • Cannot practice or compete for your college or university during
your first year of college; • Cannot receive an athletics scholarship during your first year of
college, although you may receive need-based financial aid; and
Can play only three seasons in your sport if you maintain your
eligibility from year to year (to earn a fourth season you must
complete at least 80 percent of your degree requirements before
beginning your fifth year of college).
