Posted: 05/23/22 6:57 pm ::: NCAAW NLI Signing and Scholarship Question |
Reply |
|
The NCAA Div 1 Basketball Regular Period signing dates were April 13, 2022 to May 18, 2022 for Prospective Student-Athletes Signing 2021-22 and Enrolling 2022-23.
Many 2022 Div 1 prospects have been offered and some verbally committed, but if they did not sign a National Letter (NLI) by this past May 18, what happens?
I know the prospects don't need a NLI to walk on with a team this fall, but can they still be offered a scholarship?
Thanks!

Yes, they can because NLI is voluntary and not required.

The NLI is a voluntary program with regard to both institutions and student-athletes. No prospective student-athlete or parent is required to sign the NLI and no institution is required to join the program.
The NLI is a binding agreement between a prospective student-athlete and an NLI member institution.
A prospective student-athlete agrees to attend the institution full-time for one academic year (two semesters or three quarters).
The institution agrees to provide athletics financial aid for one academic year (two semesters or three quarters).
The penalty for not fulfilling the NLI agreement: A student-athlete has to serve one year in residence (full-time, two semesters or three quarters) at the next NLI member institution and lose one season of competition in all sports.
An important provision of the NLI program is a recruiting prohibition applied after a prospective student-athlete signs the NLI. This prohibition requires member institutions to cease recruitment of a prospective student-athlete once an NLI is signed with another institution. |
