BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Indiana University students who compete in intercollegiate athletics continue to excel in the classroom according to the latest NCAA Academic Progress Rate (APR) data released today. Eleven of IU's 22 programs earned perfect 1,000 APR scores for the 2021-22 academic year.
The eleven IU programs that earned a perfect APR score for the 2021-22 academic year are Men's Basketball, Women's Cross Country, Men's Golf, Rowing, Men's Soccer, Softball, Women's Swimming and Diving, Men's Tennis, Women's Tennis, Women's Track and Field, and Volleyball.
As a department, IU's combined single-year APR score was 984, and all of IU's 22 programs easily met the required four-year average of 930 to be eligible for NCAA Championship competition during the 2023-24 season.
"We take tremendous pride in the academic success of our student-athletes, our programs, and our department as a whole, so to see so many of our programs earn perfect APR scores is reason to celebrate," said IU Vice President and Director of Athletics Scott Dolson. "Ultimately, one of our primary goals is to support our students' efforts as they work toward and ultimately earn their Indiana University degrees. This important metric show that our students and our staff continue to perform at a very high level in achieving that goal."
The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete on scholarship. The APR accounts for eligibility, retention and graduation and provides a measure of each team's academic performance.
Noting The APR
• The most recent APR scores are based on a multi-year formula of scores from the 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21, and 2021-22 academic years.
• To compete in 2023-24 NCAA championships, teams must earn a 930 four-year average APR.
• The goal of the NCAA's academic performance program is improvement, not punishment. Not only does the program ensure accountability for student-athletes, teams and institutions, but it also provides fairness by considering individual circumstances.
