STEPS TO REGISTER WITH THE NCAA
CLEARINGHOUSE
STEP 1: It is recommended that the student athlete registers in his/her junior year, beginning in the month of May. To register, the student athlete needs to apply online at: www.eligibilitycenter.org.
STEP 2: After the student registration is complete, you must request your high school transcripts be sent to the NCAA Clearinghouse. One will be sent as a final junior transcript and one will be sent as a final senior transcript.
(If the student has attended more than one high school, each high school must receive a copy of the completed Student Release form. A transcript must be sent from each high school attended.)
STEP 3: All prospective student-athletes intending to enroll in an NCAA Division I or II institution for the first time must complete the NCAA Amateurism Certification questionnaire.
STEP 4: Test scores must be reported directly from either ACT or SAT. They will no longer be accepted from the high school transcript. When registering to take the SAT’s or ACT’s you should include the NCAA as one of your free choices to where to send your scores. The code for the NCAA is 9999. If you did not do this, go online for SAT scores to www.collegeboard.org or for ACT scores to www.act.org and send your score directly to the NCAA Clearinghouse.
STEP 5: Upon completion of the junior year, the final junior year transcript will be sent to the Clearinghouse. The student will receive an initial clearing statement from the Clearinghouse in the fall of the student’s senior year.
STEP 6: Before the end of the senior year, you must request the Final Amateurism Certification for each sport that you will participate in. Log back into your account at www.eligibilitycenter.org. Click on MY PLANNER. Then select the red “Request Final Amateurism” button and follow the instructions.
STEP 7: After graduation, the student’s final senior transcript with the exact date of graduation must be sent to the Clearinghouse from the high school. The student will then receive a final clearing statement from the Clearinghouse.
In completing the registration forms, the high school CEEB code is required.
CV high school CEEB CODE is 392-545.
