A late February LRIC interp

Just posted on LSDBi:

Academic Expenses or Services to Complete Initial or Transfer Eligibility Requirements (I)

Date Issued: Feb 20, 2008
Type: Official

The committee confirmed that an institution may not provide any academic expenses or services (e.g., tutoring, test preparation) to assist a prospective or enrolled student-athlete in completing any initial-eligibility or transfer-eligibility requirements or in improving his or her academic profile in the preparation of a request for a waiver of such requirements.

[References:  NCAA Division I Bylaws 13.15.1 (prohibited expenses) and 16.3.1.1 (academic counseling/support services) and a staff interpretation (9/20/89, item c), which has been archived.]
