Who will be drug tested beginning 2004-05 academic year?
• Every Division I institution will be drug tested at least once each academic year beginning this fall. Please know, however, that your institution may be selected for testing more than once each academic year. • Every Division I sport your institution sponsors is now subject to out-of-competition (year-round) drug testing. • If your institution sponsors football, 18 football student-athletes plus eight student-athletes from one additional sport will be randomly selected for drug testing. • If your institution does not sponsor football, only eight student-athletes from one sport will be randomly selected. When can a student-athlete be selected for drug testing? Student-athletes are subject to drug testing before, during or after their competitive season. How and when are institutions notified of their selection for drug testing? The National Center for Drug Free Sport (Drug Free Sport) will notify institutions via email of their selection for drug testing no earlier than two days befo
