Student Athletes: If you’re planning to play a sport at the collegiate level or are interested in playing a sport at the collegiate level, you need to create an NAIA or NCAA student account, depending on which division the university belongs to that you’ll be attending. Oftentimes students don’t know which university they’ll be attending until their senior year, so it’s recommended to make both accounts if you have a serious interest in recruitment as an underclassman. Creating an account allows Student Services to upload your coursework documentation and keep you on track with eligibility guidelines. Please see these websites for more information. NCAA: https://www.ncaa.org/sports/2014/10/24/how-to-register.aspx NAIA: https://play.mynaia.org/
