What are the NCAA and the NCAA Eligibility Center?
The NCAA or National Collegiate Athletic Association serves as the governing body for more than 1280 colleges and universities in the US. The NCAA Eligibility Center is responsible for certifying the academic and amateur credentials of all college bound athletes who wish to compete in NCAA Division I or Division II athletics. In order to be allowed to play in the NCAA I or II, you must have registered with Eligibility Center. The Eligibility Center decides based on your SAT/ACT results and academic performance whether you are eligible or not. In addition to this, they will check whether you are an amateur athlete.
