BOSTON – Seven Boston University athletic programs have earned perfect Division I Academic Progress Rates (APR) for the most recent cohort, as announced by the NCAA on Tuesday.
The BU men's and women's cross country, women's basketball, women's golf, women's ice hockey, women's soccer and women's tennis teams all recorded an APR of 1000. Eighteen of BU's 20 NCAA programs had an APR of 985 or higher. The national four-year APR is 984, up one point from the last publicly reported rate in May 2020. This data reflects the entire four-year cohort ending with the 2020-21 academic year.
Each year, the NCAA tracks the classroom performance of student-athletes on every Division I team through the annual scorecard of academic achievement. The rate measures eligibility, graduation and retention each semester or quarter and provides a clear picture of the academic performance in each sport. The most recent APRs are multi-year rates based on scores from the 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20 and 2020-21 academic years.
