NCAA Requirements to Become a CCU Student-Athlete
Meet with your High School Counselor
Tell him/her that you are interested in participating in athletics at the Division II level. You and your counselor should go over your transcript to ensure you are meeting all necessary NCAA requirements.
Register online with the NCAA Eligibility Center. Certification by the Eligibility Center is mandatory to compete in NCAA Athletics.
Ask your counselor to submit the following information directly to the Eligibility Center:
Official high school transcript with official test scores from ACT/SAT
List of academic coursesÂ
After graduation your counselor will need to send a final transcript with proof of graduation.
To expedite the process, or if you have not yet taken the ACT/SAT, you can send your scores directly to the Eligibility Center. You can do this by marking 9999 as one of your college and scholarship codes on the registration folder or when requesting additional score reports.Â
