Academic Advisor Forum: Advising the Student-Athlete

Student-athletes represent a unique population on campus. These students maintain rigorous academic schedules while balancing a variety of additional expectations, including weights, conditioning, practices, study hall and competitions while bringing a mix of identities, experiences and motivations.

Student-athletes are also expected to meet certain requirements and academic criteria passed down from the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). These requirements are not always common knowledge to the larger campus community but are important to understand the unique challenges and experiences of our student-athletes.
