This report examines the predictors of college graduation for student-athletes. Presented first are five-year graduation results from the 1984 and 1985 cohorts of the NCAA data base.

This is the first in a series of research reports about student-athlete data from the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse (IEC). This report focuses on two high-school classes with largely complete data — the 1994 seniors and the 1995 seniors.Descriptive features include demographic characteristics of the IEC students, high-school core courses and core grades, nationally standardized test scores, either the SAT or the ACT, and the final initial-eligibility certification under the existing rules (Bylaw 14.3). This presentation of IEC data is intended to provide some basic information on high-school academic performances of current student-athletes.

This is a descriptive analysis of trends in NCAA Division I graduation-rates data during the past seven years. The data were collected on students in the entering freshman classes between 1983 and 1989. The individual-year data were published previously in the respective class’ NCAA Division I Graduation-Rates Reports; however, this is the first published summary of trends in enrollment and graduation rates over multiple years.

This is the continuation of a series of research reports about student-athlete data from the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse (IEC) data. It is an extension of NCAA Research Report No. 96-02 that focuses on data from the most recent high-school class for which data are available—1996 high-school seniors. For comparison, data from the 1995 high-school class also are presented and updated. Descriptive features include demographic characteristics of the IEC students, their high-school core courses and core grades, their nationally standardized SAT and ACT scores, and their final initial-eligibility certification under Bylaw 14.3, Prop. 48 and Prop. 16. This presentation is intended to provide some basic information on high-school academic performances of current student-athletes.

For the seventh consecutive year, the NCAA compiled the following statistical information regarding student-athlete race and ethnicity in intercollegiate athletics at its member institutions. This information provides a general view of recent historical student-athlete race and ethnicity trends by gender, sport and division.

This is the continuation of a series of research reports about prospective student-athletes (PSAs) who applied to the NCAA Initial-Eligibility Clearinghouse (IEC). Specifically, this report is an extension of NCAA Research Reports 96-02 and 97-02 and focuses on IEC data from the most recent high-school classes for which complete data are available—the 1997 and 1998 high-school graduates. The goal of this and other reports in this series is to provide descriptive information for further research. The focus of this report is on the following academic characteristics for those PSAs who applied to the IEC for initial-eligibility certification: · High-school core courses; · High-school core-course grades; · Nationally standardized SAT and ACT Assessment scores; and · The final initial-eligibility certification under the existing Division I rules (see Bylaw 14.3 of the NCAA Division I Manual).

This report provides summary information concerning personnel, revenues, expenses and other comparative variables of men’s and women’s intercollegiate athletics programs at NCAA member institutions for the 1999-00 fiscal year. The summary information may be used to help track gender-equity issues at the collegiate level. This report is the result of a survey conducted during the fall of 2000.

Statistics from the 1956- 57 through the 1981-82 academic year are included but are only available at five-year intervals and include recreation programs.

For the second consecutive year, the NCAA has compiled the following statistical information regarding student-athlete ethnicity in intercollegiate athletics at its member institutions. This information provides a general view of recent historical trends in participation by gender, sport and division.
