Student-athletes interested in playing at the college level should be aware of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) requirements - especially Division I and Division II. There are certain core courses and minimum ACT / SAT test scores to consider. The number of core courses required for prospective athletes is now 16. 

NCAA Division I and II Athletics:
Students should register with the NCAA Eligibility Center in junior year or by the fall of senior year. Go to NCAA Eligibility Center to complete the online form.  During junior year, take the ACT or SAT and use the code "9999" to have your official scores sent directly to the NCAA Eligibility Center. Students should submit their high school transcript at the end of their junior year. Check with your counselor to make sure you are on track to graduate on time with your class and have the required amount of core courses. At the end of senior year, ask your counselor to submit your final transcript with proof of graduation. 

National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) also has an online eligibility form. Go to NAIA Eligibility Center to register.
