What does NCAA approved mean?
Not all courses at UTVA count as NCAA core courses. By checking the NCAA High School Portal website or by contacting a UTVA school counselor, you can find a comprehensive list of NCAA approved courses, limitations, and restrictions.
Student athletes must also graduate from high school and earn a minimum GPA.
