Student Senate & Athletics Retention Program
For the purpose of determining eligibility of an NJCAA student-athlete to participate in Faculty Student Association-governed intercollegiate athletics, a student must comply with the NJCAA eligibility standards. In addition, the midterm grades of all courses (including non-credit remedial) for the given semester will be used to determine continued eligibility in athletics. In the case that a student's midterm GPA falls below a 2.0 in the current semester, in order to maintain eligibility, the student will be given the option to enroll into the Student Senate and Athletics Retention Program. Students who maintain all programmatic requirements will remain eligible to participate in intercollegiate athletics until midterm grades are overridden by the end of term grades.
