Thinking About Playing Sports in College?

If you’re interested in competing at the college level, it’s important to understand the academic requirements set by the NCAA Eligibility Center (formerly the NCAA Clearinghouse). Meeting these requirements helps ensure you’re eligible to play your sport after high school.

Talk to Your School Counselor

If college athletics are part of your future plans, make sure your counselor knows. They will:

  • Mark your graduation program in Infinite Campus as NCAA.

  • Review your courses to ensure you are enrolled in NCAA-approved Core Courses.

  • Help track your progress toward meeting NCAA academic standards.

NCAA-approved courses are marked in the NPS Course Catalogs below.
