Each academic year, every division I program across the country calculates its APR using a simple and consistent formula set by the NCAA. Each term, scholarship student-athletes can earn one point for remaining eligible and one point for staying in school or graduating. For schools that do not offer scholarships, recruited student-athletes are tracked.
