  11. How is the NCAA Core GPA Calculated? The NCAA Eligibility Center calculates the GPA on a 4.000 scale. (A=4; B=3; C=2; D=1) To determine points earned for each course, multiply the numeric grade value (4, 3, 2 or 1) by the amount of credit earned. A semester is awarded .5 unit of credit and a trimester is awarded .34 unit of credit.  The NCAA Eligibility Center does not use plus or minus grades when calculating core-course GPA. For example, grades of B+, B and B- will all be worth 3 quality points each.  If your high school uses a numeric scale, the high school needs to provide a conversion to a letter grade and communicate that to the NCAA Eligibility Center. Examples of total quality point calculation:  An A grade (4 points) for a trimester course (0.34 units): 4 points x 0.34 units = 1.36 total quality points.  An A grade (4 points) for a semester course (0.50 units): 4 points x 0.50 units = 2.00 total quality points.  An A grade (4 points) for a full-year course (1.00 units): 4 points x 1.00 units = 4.00 quality points. Calculate the Overall Grade-Point Average: To calculate the estimated core-course grade-point average, divide the total number of points for all core courses by the total number of core-course units completed.

  20. What Does All This Mean?

  21. Start Preparing Realistically First and Foremost a “Student-Athlete” must begin thinking about tomorrow Keep records of Academic Info Current Be thinking what and where is a place you are interested in.

  22. Work, Work, Work…. Academically...What you do today effects what you can do tomorrow. Athletically.. Strength, there is no substitute for it, and no excuse for the lack of it. (You determine your opportunity.) Socially….Be Involved. Multitask.

  23. Recruiting Fact Total, there are around 80,000 scholarships granted each year in men’s and women’s sports at the NCAA Division I and II level.

  24. Be Realistic 51, 000 Football players in Texas….400 received Division I scholarships. Everyone will not get a scholarship. Not to discourage, but to be honest. We want you to enjoy this time and learn lessons that will apply to the rest of your life. Control What you can Control Academics Strength Training ATTITUDE Being The Best Person You Can Be.

  27. FAFSA FAFSA stands for Free Application for Student Aid. Anyone who is planning on attending college is to fill out a form. Forms are available in the counselor’s office or on the internet at www.fafsa.ed.gov. This is very important, because federal student aid is given out on a first come-first served basis.

  28. What Do The Coaches Do For You? We fill out all questionnaires that come from colleges and recruiting services We provide SAT, ACT, and financial aid information and deadlines We promote you We push you to become the best person, student, and athlete you can be

  29. What Can You Do To Help Yourself? Be organized and have a plan. Research colleges that interests you. Make your grades! Do as good as you possibly can in all your classes. Have a great off-season. Improve as much as possible on all your testing areas Play great next year and help us have a great season! The further we go in the play-offs, the more exposure you will get. Sign up to take the Tests(SAT/ACT). Let us know when you get your scores in. Be realistic in your expectations. Keep the TEAM first and remember that the more success we have as a Team, the more rewards there are for everyone. Don’t get caught up with things you cannot control. Make sure you register with the NCAA Eligibility Center at the end of your Sophomore year.

  30. In Conclusion Know we are working for your student/athletes. Recruiters - Know we will be honest with all recruiters about our athletes. Letters - Mean they are tracking you and evaluating you. Camps - Are for evaluation not to teach you how to play the game. Chance to showcase yourself. Test Scores - SAT or ACT as a Junior. Scholarships – We don’t give out scholarships but, we will do everything possible to help you.
