To be eligible to represent SFU in intercollegiate athletics competition, a student athlete must be enrolled in at least a minimum fulltime program of studies, be in good academic standing and maintain progress toward a baccalaureate or equivalent degree. A student athlete must be in compliance with all applicable NCAA, GNAC and RMAC Conference rules and regulations.

The NCAA and Simon Fraser University define full-time as 12 credit hours. A student athlete must be in 12 credit hours to practice and compete. If you anticipate dropping a course, visit with both your academic advisor and your head coach as falling below 12 units-even for a day-could impact your eligibility.

Communicate regularly with your coaches not only about the number of credits/units you are taking, but also how you are doing in each of your courses, whether you anticipate needing any tutoring, and other academic information.
