In accordance with bylaw 13.02.12, the NCAA’s definition of a prospective student-athlete is anyone who has started  classes for the ninth grade (7th grade in Men's Basketball). A student who has not started classes for the ninth grade becomes a prospective student-athlete if the institution provides such an individual (or the individual's relatives or friends) any financial assistance or other benefits that the institution does not provide to prospective students generally. An individual remains a prospective student-athlete until one of the following occurs (whichever is earlier):

(a) The individual officially registers and enrolls in a minimum full-time program of studies and attends classes in any term of a four-year collegiate institution's regular academic year (excluding summer);
 
(b) The individual participates in a regular squad practice or competition at a four-year collegiate institution that occurs before the beginning of any term;
 
(c) The individual officially registers, enrolls and attends classes during the certifying institution's summer term prior to his or her initial full-time enrollment at the certifying institution; or
 
(d) The individual reports to an institutional orientation session that is open to all incoming students within 14 calendar days prior to the opening day of classes of a regular academic year term. (Adopted: 1/19/13 effective 8/1/13)

In accordance with NCAA Bylaw 13.3, we would like to provide you with some key information regarding Hofstra University as well as information relevant to all NCAA Division I student-athletes.
