If you wish to participate in NCAA division 1 or 2 athletics, you need to be certified by the NCAA Eligibility Center. You need to qualify academically and you will also need to be cleared as an amateur student-athlete. Students are responsible for achieving and protecting their eligibility status.

The National Junior College Athletic Association provides opportunities for student-athletes to continue their athletic careers. The NJCAA is divided into three divisions just like the NCAA. The schools that are members of this organization are two-year community and junior colleges. After completing their eligibility, a student-athlete may choose to continue their academic and athletic career at a NCAA or NAIA school. 

Small, private colleges and universities that are members of NAIA offer most of the same opportunities as NCAA schools.

The services provided by the National Scouting Report, a for fee site, to each high school student-athlete enrolled are thorough and extensive. Each applicant is evaluated by talent, academics, character, desire and potential before he or she is accepted.
