Academic Athletic Eligibility Policy
To compete in intercollegiate athletics, an entering student must meet the entrance requirements of Keuka College and those set forth by the NCAA for Division III. To promote athletic competition within the learning environment of Keuka College, student-athletes are expected to maintain eligibility for intercollegiate competition as follows:
- First-term freshmen are eligible for participation on varsity teams and extramural clubs as long as the entrance requirements are met.
- Students who enter Keuka College from other four-year institutions or from a two-year college must meet the eligibility requirements of the NCAA before they participate in intercollegiate competition. Complete details regarding transfer eligibility are available from the Director of Athletics.
- Only full-time matriculated students are eligible for varsity teams. Those who pay the student activities fee are eligible for extramural competition. To remain eligible, the student must remain in good academic standing as defined in the Policy on Academic Standing (see the Student Handbook).
Responsibility for supervision of these policies rests with the provost or designee who will act as the eligibility representative for Keuka College to the NCAA.
