What is Athletic Aid? All funds administered by the institution, which includes scholarships, grants, tuition waivers, loans… There are maximum amounts S-A’s can receive (AZ resident $11,176; OutSt $20,116) There are maximum amounts institutions can offer and athletic teams can offer.

NCAA Grant-in-Aid Limitations Men’s Sports Baseball (11.7/9) Basketball (13/10) XC & Track (18/12.6) Football (85/63/36) Golf (3.6/4.5) Swimming (9.9/8.1) Wrestling (9.9/9.0) Women’s Sports Basketball (13/10) XC & Track (18/12.6) Golf (6/5.4) Soccer (12/9.9) Softball (12/7.2) Swimming (14/8.1) Volleyball (12/8) Tennis (8/6)

Misconceptions of Scholarships At NAU there are NO student-athletes on full-scholarships We currently have around 380 student- athletes and about 178 fulls; that works out to be about 0.47 per athlete or 47% equivalency That works out to be $5253 a year for an AZ Student-athlete; or $9455 for OutSt

Scholarship misconceptions (cont.) Calculation for Equivalency: Aid = $2794; AZ resident rate = $11,176 per year (tuition/fees/room/board/books) so $2794 divided by $11,176 equals.25 or 25% All of our programs are given equivalencies All NAU sports are fully funded in scholarships Very few D-I schools are fully funded in all sports No D-II schools are fully funded in all sports
