MYSTERY OF THE NCAA ELIGIBILITY CENTER As of August 1, 2010 Online credit recovery classes for Division 1 become very difficult to have accepted.
MYSTERY OF THE NCAA ELIGIBILITY CENTER 1. Courses that are taught through distance learning, online, credit recovery, etc. need to be comparable in length, content and rigor to courses taught in a traditional classroom setting. Students may not skip lessons or test out of modules. The course must be four-year college preparatory. 2. All courses must include ongoing access between the instructor and student, as well as regular interaction for purposes of teaching, evaluating and providing assistance. This may include, for example, exchanging of e-mails between the student and teacher, feedback on assignments, and the opportunity for the teacher to engage the student in individual instruction. 3. Any course taken must have a defined time period for completion. For example, it should be clear whether the course is meant to be taken for an entire semester or during a more condensed time frame, such as six weeks, etc. 4.Nontraditional courses should be clearly identified as such on the high school transcript.

No problem. My guidance counselor does this stuff. Roughly 33% of student body play sports Counselor works with 165 athletes 3% will receive scholarship..5 kids That represents 1% of the kids an average counselor works with
Problem. My guidance counselor is stretched thin. Take Control
