ACADEMIC INFORMATION FOR NCAA ELIGIBILITY AND PLANNING
 

Planning for participation in NCAA Division I or Division II intercollegiate athletics begins in 8th grade with course selection and continues throughout high school.  A student-athlete’s performance in the classroom throughout high school is essential to be eligible for participation in college.  To be eligible, students MUST complete the NCAA Clearinghouse’s “Core Curriculum Requirements” AND meet the minimum GPA and SAT/ACT requirements mandated by the NCAA.  West Perry courses that meet the Core Requirements are indicated throughout the course catalog.  A complete list of the core curriculum requirements and NCAA registration information is online at www.ncaaclearinghouse.org.

Please note: Students who fail to meet the core curriculum, GPA, and/or SAT/ACT requirements will NOT be eligible to participate in NCAA Division I or Division II intercollegiate athletics as freshman.  Interested students MUST file an application with the clearinghouse during the junior year and notify his/her school counselor of intent to play.

All aspiring college athletes should discuss their goals with their sport’s head coach, counselor, and can schedule a meeting with Mr. Anderson to talk about potential opportunities that exist at the next level. Email [email protected] to schedule a meeting.
