The national clearinghouse application for all students intending to play NCAA sports.


If you want to compete in NCAA sports, you need to register with the NCAA Eligibility Center. Plan to register before starting your freshman year of high school or as soon as possible. The information below will help guide you through the registration process.

You'll only need to create one account with the Eligibility Center. Starting with the free Profile Page is best practice, as you can transition it later to the Certification account needed for your circumstances.

Every student-athlete must register with the NAIA Eligibility Center to play sports at an NAIA college or university.
