Student Senate & Athletics Retention Program (S.S.A.R.P.)

Members of Student Senate Sponsored Organizations and Intercollegiate Athletes - Academic Eligibility Requirements:

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.

Student Senate & Athletics Retention Program:

Weekly Programmatic Requirements- All student-athletes enrolled in the program will have to meet the weekly programmatic requirements of mandatory class attendance and attend five workshops (1 workshop per week) throughout the remainder of the semester. If a student-athlete misses their designated workshop, they will be removed from the program. 

If a student-athlete does not meet the weekly standards and is removed from S.S.A.R.P., the student-athlete will be immediately removed from their respective program for the remainder of the semester.
