Students - Time to Request Final Amateurism Certification
The time has come for seniors planning on enrolling this fall to request their final amateurism certification.  The request process opened April 1, which allows students to submit the request online.  College-bound student-athletes should log into www.eligibilitycenter.org using their e-mail address and password.  If you have forgotten their password, you should click on the “forgot password” link on the top right of the page.  You will be asked to enter your e-mail address.  A link will be sent to the e-mail address, which will allow the college-bound student-athlete to reset your password.

College-bound student-athletes who originally registered on the ncaaclearinghouse.net Web site and have not yet transferred their account to www.eligibilitycenter.org must complete the transfer process prior to requesting final amateurism certification.  Click here for instructions on how to transfer a college-bound student-athlete's account.  Please review the information you have submitted to ensure its accuracy, paying specific attention to the enrollment period and the sports-participation information provided.

The earlier that final amateurism certification has been requested, the sooner a review can begin.
