My son went to JUCO right out of high school for 1 year and then to ORU. They had some issues with his eligibility and I asked a lot of questions to the clearance person at ORU. I said I am his mom, but I am also his high school counselor. They do like to see that foreign language on the transcript and he DID have to take Spanish last semester at ORU! Red Oak gave that up several years ago because of the cost. My Dalton is the first ever D1 baseball player/or any sport under my counseling years. So, it was a first for me. Had he not taken concurrent classes in high school, he would not have been academically eligible to play and would have had to be an academic redshirt. I hope this helps. * NCAA requires 4 additional units of the core courses and foreign language courses can count for these. NCAA will not accept our computer courses, so I encourage all students planning on participating in college sports to enroll in the 2 foreign language classes to count specifically for this purpose. Otherwise they must take 4 additional core classes which are difficult to get done. * Nowhere in the NCAA/NAIA regulations does it say that foreign language is absolutely mandated. However, we have found that some universities outside of Oklahoma, especially Texas, MUCH prefer they have the language rather than computer technology. To be safe, we try to guide our athletes down the foreign language route just in case. The rules seem simple enough to understand, but when a bunch of folks (coaches, counselors, admins) start interpreting those rules is where it gets real sticky. I don't know if this helped you at all, other than seeing that many of us are in the same boat with this :) * We encourage our students who think they may be able to play at the next level to take the foreign languages instead of two years of technology. NCAA doesn't accept the technology classes. However, I have had students that did take the technology classes and we had them take extra core classes on top of the Oklahoma requirements to meet the requirements of NCAA. I hope that helps. * They DO have to have a foreign language to be eligible for any college sport! I had to give an online course to a student in the summer my first year as counselor because I didn't know that.

This entails providing accurate guidance and resources, which empower students to become experts in their high school planning and college inquiries. By understanding the rules and requirements for high school and actively engaging in the process, students take ownership of their educational journey and develop essential skills for success. http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/eligibility_center/Student_Resources/CBSA.pdf - Sabrina Wood [cid:image002.jpg at 01DA5D99.1EC16060] Page 10 of Guide for the college-bound student-athlete * I did a little bit of research on this myself yesterday too. I did find out that if the college is a JUCO and is NJCAA they just have to have a high school diploma to be eligible. The NCAA D1 and D2 colleges are the ones that require a foreign language credit. I will link the NJCAA eligibility requirements below. We don't have many students that go on to play college ball, but we've had some that mainly go to Murray State and they are NJCAA, which prompted me to check on that. Hope this helps! https://www.njcaa.org/compete/faqs NJCAA Eligibility Requirements https://www.njcaa.org/compete/faqs www.njcaa.org * CAA Division I Worksheet http://fs.ncaa.org/Docs/eligibility_center/DI_and_DII_Worksheet.pdf * Please consult the 2023-24 NCAA Guide For High School Counselors @ www.ncaa.org.
