Notes on UCCS Athletics Academic Eligibility Policy

     First semester student eligibility
         Students enrolled in their first semester at UCCS or students
	 who transfer back to UCCS after at least one semester of full
         time enrollment elsewhere are required to meet the NCAA
         eligibility requirements plus any additional requirements
         imposed by their coaching staff. 
	    The NCAA allows students to compete an entire year before any
	    further checks

     Continuing student eligibility
         Students in their second or later semester at UCCS are
         required to meet the NCAA eligibility requirements plus any
         additional requirements imposed by their coaching staff, and
         moreover must maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher on
	 courses taken at CU.
	    The NCAA also allows students with a GPA as low as 1.900
	    after completing 24 semester hours, and as low as 1.950
	    after completing 48 semester hours to compete.

         This GPA requirement will be examined every semester. The
         responsibility for tracking and reporting eligibility rests
         with the athletic department and (ultimately) with the
         student athlete.
	    The NCAA requires satisfactory progress (including GPA)
	    to only be evaluated at the beginning of the school year

     The IAAC may grant waivers for spring semester eligibility.

     The IAAC may recommend waivers for fall semester eligibility
     to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs.
