NCAA Requires Amateurism Certification
In November, the NCAA began requiring prospective student-athletes to complete a questionnaire
regarding their amateurism status. This additional layer was incorporated into the certification
process in response to the concerns expressed by administrators at NCAA member schools. All
prospective student-athletes who plan to attend an NCAA Division I or II school must complete the
questionnaire and be certified as an amateur prior to participation in NCAA Division I or II
intercollegiate athletics. Some of the types of questions that prospective student-athletes must
answer include:
- In any sport, have you ever authorized anyone (other than your parent, legal guardian or
coach) to market your athletics skill or reputation?
- In any sport, have you ever accepted any benefits from an agent (or other individual who
has marketed any individual’s athletics skill)?
- Before ever attending classes full time at any college, in the sport(s) of _________ have you
ever competed in an event and accepted prize money?
- Was the prize money you received more than the amount you spent to participate in the
event?
- Before ever attending classes full time at any college, in the sport(s) of __________ have
you ever competed in an event where any part of your expenses were paid for by anyone
other than your family, your team or the sponsor of the event?
- Before ever attending classes full time at any college, in the sport(s) of __________ have
you ever been paid to compete?
Prospective student-athletes can begin completing the questionnaire at the beginning of their junior
year in high school when they register with the Clearinghouse (or the Eligibility Center). Answers
to the questions will determine one’s amateurism eligibility status. The questionnaire can be updated
until the prospective student-athlete submits his or her final authorization signature.
