Another Eligibility Question

by **bullhighutewoozgriffclam** on Thu Mar 30, 2006 5:48 pm

So here's the hypothetical. There's a senior on a club team who's been going to school, officially for 6 years. There's also a start up team forming in the neghborhood which could eventually go to the DIII level. Could that Senior play for the DIII school once it becomes an NCAA team, since I understand NCAA doesn't consider club years played as NCAA eligibilty? Are there time limits to get your eligibilty in? What else would this fellow need to know?

You get 10 semesters to play 4 seasons at NCAA Div III. Sounds like this hypothetical student has used his 10 semesters already.

I'm in my 8th semester now so i should have two more left yeah? Throughout those six years i was off and on. one of the semesters I even withdrew from all my classes. Maybe you know more on this A.J.

If you take less than 12 credits in the fall, you should be able to play 2 seasons at Div III. You will need to check with the compliance officer after he has reviewed your transcripts.

Thanks for the words of wisdom.
