May 3, 2017 Oxford, Ohio—The Miami University Athletics Department posted some of its best Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores in school history, as released by the NCAA today. Thirteen of the department's 17 teams posted perfect 1,000 scores and all of Miami’s programs scored at least a 968 or above in single year APR scores.
All of Miami’s teams were comfortably above the NCAA's 930 minimum score to receive scholarship limitations or postseason bans.
"Miami Universities Athletic Department is a special place because we all work hard to stay on the same page for benefit and success of our student athletes,” said Craig Bennett, Assistant AD for Academic Support Services. “Our coaches do an amazing job recruiting student athletes that have the work ethic to be successful athletically and academically. Our student athletes know the value of graduating from Miami University and recognize what a privilege and responsibility there is to put on the Red and White."
The 13 perfect scores include: men’s basketball, men’s cross country, men’s golf, men’s ice hockey, men’s track, women’s basketball, women’s cross country, field hockey, women’s soccer, women’s swimming, women’s track, women’s tennis, volleyball.
APR scores are based on retention and eligibility of each scholarship student-athlete. Each student-athlete can earn four points per year – one point for first-semester eligibility, one point for first-semester retention, one point for second-semester eligibility, and one point for second-semester retention. The total points earned are then divided by total points possible and the decimal place is dropped for the APR score.
