AWARD CRITERIA
Academic standing:
- Student-athletes must be at least a sophomore academically and athletically.
- Student-athletes must be enrolled at their institution at the time of nomination either as undergraduates or graduate students. Only the school at which an athlete competed in the current academic year can nominate that player.
- Student-athletes who have graduated from their own institution during the current academic year and are not competing in athletics at another institution at the time of nomination are eligible.
- NEW in 2023-24- TRANSFER STUDENT-ATHLETES: The 12-month residency requirement for undergraduate transfers is no longer required. If your transfer student-athletes (undergraduates or graduates) are in their first semester at your institution, you must use their cumulative undergraduate GPA and cumulative graduate GPA (if grad GPA is applicable) from their former institution - which meets the 3.50 cumulative GPA - to be considered for Academic All-District/Academic All-America status. This would be the GPA or GPAs they used when gaining admittance to your institution. If your transfer student-athlete has a GPA at your institution, then you take the COMBINED cumulative GPA (from all institutions) and use that in your nomination process. (You cannot just select their GPA at your institution to date.)
- An undergraduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale).
- A graduate student-athlete must have at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) as both an undergraduate and a grad student unless they are in their first semester as a graduate student and don't have an established graduate GPA.
- The cumulative grade point average may not be rounded up to 3.50.
- First-semester transfers: See the information, above, for how to submit their GPA.
- M/W Track & Field/Cross Country: Eligible nominees will be based off of TFRRS performance list rankings at the time of nomination. Note: ONLY INDIVIDUAL TOP 50 PERFORMANCES ARE TO BE USED FOR ELIGIBILITY. If a student-athlete has participated in a RELAY EVENT which is ranked in the Top 50, that can bolster a nomination but the basic criteria to be met is for INDIVIDUAL performances. You cannot use a relay Top 50 performance as the basis for eligibility.
