NCAA releases APR data: Ohio State and Harvard lead football programs with perfect scores
View Date:2025-01-11 09:31:31
The NCAA released its Academic Progress Rate report for Division I schools Tuesday, the 20th year they have released data.
One of the interesting points of the data is that two football programs—Ohio State and Harvard—achieved perfect multi-year 1,000 scores.
According to the data, Notre Dame led the way among Football Bowl Subdivision schools with 16 perfect APR scores amongst its athletic programs, followed by Duke with 14 and North Carolina State with 11. In 2023, while 54 teams had an APR below 930, Harvard had 15 athletic programs with perfect APR scores.
The NCAA said that the majority of schools with 930 or below APR scores come from Limited Resource Institutions (80%), FCS schools (74%), and Historically Black colleges and Universities (56%).
What is APR?
The APR was created to hold schools accountable for their student-athletes' progress in the classroom, which also accounts for retention and the eligibility of players based on metrics.
The NCAA said the four-year APR national average for Division I teams remained 984 for this year. APR is calculated by scholarship student-athletes earning one point for staying on course for a degree in their chosen major and one point for being retained (or graduating) at the end of each academic term.
Before this year, schools that did not meet the requirement threshold faced a postseason ban. The NCAA Committee on Academics says they are enforcing that rule, but a conditional waiver is offered because of the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
But teams with 930 or below year APRs, which is the NCAA's goal score, do face consequences such as "practice restrictions, playing-season reductions or disqualification from the postseason, to direct more focus on academics."
