Prospective Student-Athletes (PSA) -- Tuskegee University -- Division II

Compliance Tools

When are you a Prospective Student-Athlete (PSA)?

- You become a “prospective student-athlete” when you start ninth-grade classes. Before the ninth grade, you become a PSA if a college gives you (or your relatives or friends) any financial aid or other benefits that the college does not provide to prospective students generally.

- You become a “recruited prospective student-athlete” at a particular college if any coach or representative of the college’s athletics interest (booster or representative) approaches you (or any member of your family) about enrolling and participating in athletics at that college.

- Activities by coaches or boosters that cause you to become a recruited prospective student-athlete are:

• Providing you with an official visit;
• Placing more than one telephone call to you or any other member of your family; or
• Visiting you or any other member of your family anywhere other than the college campus
