The NCAA Eligibility Center offers three types of accounts. To start your registration begin with the free profile page. As students move through their high school career the NCAA helps you progress through the verification process by sending an email with instructions to help prospective student athletes matriculate through the verification process.
Athletes are advised to begin the Clearinghouse process in the beginning of their junior year. At that time, athletes must arrange to meet with a guidance counselor at your high school in order to review the Clearinghouse process. If you are a senior and have not already begun the Clearinghouse process, don’t panic, there is still time. Set up to meet with your guidance counselor in the next few days and get started with the Clearinghouse process.
3 types of NCAA Eligibility accounts:
- Profile Page (Free) – A great starting point! If you’re not sure about competing in college yet, this account allows you to receive updates and easily upgrade later.
- Certification Account (Required for D1 & D2 Athletes) – If you plan to compete at the Division I or II level, you’ll need to upgrade to this account to get officially certified.
- International Student Account – Designed for student-athletes from outside the U.S.
The link to the NCAA Eligibility Center can be found in the Locker Room tab of your PrepStar recruiting profile. For athletes not PrepStar verified, search for the The NCAA Eligibility Center.
