Student Athletic Certification Improvements in M-Pathways (UPDATED)

08/31/09

M-Pathways Student Administration system improvements will help facilitate compliance with NCAA and Big Ten rules for athletic practice and participation in varsity sports.
-- A system-generated restriction for student athletes that prevents them from dropping a class, if that action would result in less than full-time registration status for the fall and winter terms. Student athletes would require an authorized signature from the Academic Support Program (ASP) to override this restriction.
-- A system-generated restriction for student athletes that prevents them from making any registration changes when a final term attestation is in place. Student athletes would require an authorized signature from the Academic Support Program (ASP) to override this restriction.
-- Alerts to the Office of the Registrar (RO) and Compliance Services Office will automatically be generated when:
---- A student athlete has been suspended for various academic reasons.
---- A 3rd, 4th, or 5th year student athlete makes a change to their academic plan.

The athletic certification process is a partnership between the Compliance Services Office, the Office of the Registrar, and Schools and Colleges.
