College Bound Athletes Must register for the NCAA clearing house at www. ncaaclearinghouse. net The Clearinghouse processes academic qualifications for all prospective Division I and Division II athletes and determines whether they are eligible to compete.

Make the right choice The NCAA has a staggering statistic : They say that 26% of all incoming scholarship freshman athletes coming into college leave school before the end of their first semester! That’s 1 in every 4 college scholarship freshman. This isn’t a 4 year decision for your child. It’s a 40 year decision that will shape and mold their future. How many North Olmsted athletes go on to play college sports?
