The list of approved courses does not, nor is intended to, signify accreditation, certification, approval or endorsement of any high school or specific courses by the NCAA or NCAA Eligibility Center and is subject to change at any time and without notice. Core course information included on this Web site is provided for guidance purposes only and should not be solely relied on as an indication of NCAA initial-eligibility. Certification of a prospective student-athlete is case-specific, and the Eligibility Center has the authority to determine in its sole discretion whether the prospective student-athlete has met all criteria.

Courses designated with a '=' symbol are courses that may be used only by students with a diagnosed disability. A course for a student with disabilities must be exclusively open to students with documented learning disabilities. The course must be quantitatively and qualitatively the same as the regular equivalent and there must be a standardized curriculum/syllabus.

NCAA legislation permits a student to receive credit for a core course only one time. As a result, if a student repeats a core course, the student will only receive credit once for the core course, and the highest grade earned in the course will be included in the calculation of the student's core course grade point average. Likewise, if a student completes a course that is duplicative in content with another core course, the student will only receive credit for one of the duplicative courses, and the course with the highest grade earned will be included in the calculation of the student's core course grade point average.

List of Denied NCAA Courses (Form 48H)

The following course(s) DO NOT qualify as NCAA core course(s) and therefore CANNOT BE USED for NCAA initial-eligibility certification.

For those courses processed after January 15, 2004, the reason for denial of the courses will be included at the end of the course title listing on your high school's List of Denied NCAA Courses. The reason codes (RC) and their corresponding explanations are as follows:

RC1. The course does not meet a graduation requirement in one of the specified core areas.
RC2. The course does not meet the definition of a core course.
RC3. The course contains significant personal-service components.
RC4. The course does not meet requirements for a nontraditional course.
RC5. The course is considered doctrinal in nature.
RC6. The course has significant vocational components.
RC7. The course is not considered substantially comparable, qualitatively and quantitatively, to a regular core course offered in the academic area.
RC8. This course is on hold, pending additional information from the high school. In order for this course to be given a thorough review, the high school must fax or mail a course description from an official school publication such as a course catalog, program of studies or curriculum guide and a course outline/curriculum outline to the attention of Core Course Review. (State standards and generic pacing guides are not sufficient.) Under normal circumstances, please allow 2-3 weeks for review of RC8 materials
RC9. The course is a nontraditional course without instructor/student access.
RC10. The course is not taught at the level of Algebra I or higher.
RC11. The course is taught below the regular academic level.
RC12. The course is not considered four-year college preparatory.
RC13. The course is not a recognized academic course.
RC14. English as a Second Language (ESL) or Speakers of Other Languages (SOL) courses are not acceptable as NCAA Courses; however, advanced ESL or SOL courses may be used, but must be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Any student who wishes to have advanced ESL courses considered when determining his or her initial eligibility must contact the institution he or she will be attending in order to begin the approval process.
RC15. The course does not appear to meet NCAA core course guidelines and has been forwarded to the NCAA national office for review.
RC16. The course is denied due to submission in the wrong academic core area. You may resubmit the course in the appropriate academic area.
RC17. The course does not meet NCAA core course guidelines as established by the NCAA Core Course Review Committee.
RC18. Computer science courses cannot be used to fulfill core course requirements for student-athletes first entering a collegiate institution on or after August 1, 2005.
RC19. Courses in which the curriculum, pacing or instructional methods can be modified from student to student (including independent study courses) cannot be placed on a school's list of NCAA Courses. The Eligibility Center may review students' coursework after graduation; however, it cannot be guaranteed that the courses will be used in the initial-eligibility process.
