The program applies appropriate NCAA legislation to the student-athlete information that is entered and generates specific reports (for example, NCAA squad lists, satisfactory-progress work sheets). In addition, the software assists institutions with monitoring the recruitment of prospective student-athletes. The software is free to NCAA members. The Macintosh version can be ordered by calling Jeaneen Layton at the national office (913/339-1906). The software support help desk at the national office is available to answer questions about the software, either by phone (913/339-1906) or Internet (softwaresupport@ncaa.org). The Macintosh version should be installed only on a Macintosh computer that uses the System 7.5 or System 7.5.1 operating system. |
