Clearing

For NCAA and NAIAi universties all student athletes are subjected to institutional compliance rules known universally as Clearing which in the USA is the responsibility of an International Eligibility Desk. 

Prospective student's must register directly with the NCAA Eligibility Centre or the NAIA Clearinghouse supplying proof of academic achievements, details of entry test results and completing various forms on line which are designed to establish principles of amateurism. Clearing can be applied for before test results are known. The registration fee for International student athletes is $85 (about £50.00). 

This is a specialised area requiring experience and a knowledge of the system. Timing and correctness are important.
