No athlete may participate in practice (including non-traditional seasons), until after his/her name is submitted to the Athletics Director and Sports Information Director. Each head coach will receive a report from the Assistant Athletics Director/Academic Advisor prior to the first date of competition. This report will state each team member's status - eligible or ineligible.  NO S-A CAN COMPETE FOR JOHN JAY UNLESS THEIR NAME APPEARS ON THIS LIST (which must be submitted to the CUNYAC Office) 24 HOURS PRIOR TO THAT COMPETITON.  There is also a cut off date for each sport after which no s-a can be added for that season (check with AD or Compliance Officer.)

Each head coach will receive a final report once second semester grades are available. This report will suggest corrective action for any athletes that are in potential academic difficulty. Note Summer Session I is often under way prior to this report being issued thus athletes in difficulty may need to enroll without knowing their actual status.
