Information for Prospective Student-Athletes

  • All entering college freshman must meet the applicable NCAA initial academic eligibility requirements in order to participate in athletics at Brown University. All entering freshman must have graduated from high school, successfully completed a core curriculum, and taken a national standardized test. Your core curriculum GPA and standardized test scores will be reviewed and applied to the NCAA initial eligibility index. This will identify your initial eligibility status and determine if, and to what extent, you are able to participate in intercollegiate athletics as an entering freshman.

    Please visit the NCAA Initial Eligibility Center website for a detailed presentation on the initial academic requirements for all incoming freshman wishing to participate in intercollegiate athletics. Also, see the NCAA's website "NCAA: Going Pro in Something Other Than Sports" for general information about becoming a student-athlete.
