How do I register with the NAIA Eligibility Center?

If you know you’ll be competing at an NAIA school and have been in contact with an NAIA coach your next step will be to register for the NAIA Eligibility Center. You can check the full details on the NAIA Eligibility Center here.

If you are ready to register have the registration money ready ($65 for U.S. students and $95 for international students) then go to the website playnaia.org here.

After you register you’ll be sent an NAIA Eligibility Center identification number that you’ll use to access your NAIA profile and send to college coaches who may be interested in you. Then start filling out information on the website to complete your athlete profile. This will include information about your high school, your GPA, test scores and class rank.

Also included in this section is your physical stature, statistics and team information.

Of course, you may not have all of these things readily available when you register, so you can log in multiple times in order to complete it. Just make sure you have everything you need in order to gain eligibility.

You can work with your high school academic counselor to acquire any documents or information you need from the school.

Are you ready for the NEXT STEP!
