INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – The complete NCAA Academic Progress Rates (APR) were released on Tuesday and the University of Portland continues to perform at a high level as all Pilot athletics programs remain in good standing.
Men's and women's tennis both posted perfect multi-year rates and were joined by nine other programs in recording perfect single-year scores for the 2023-24 season.
Eleven Pilot programs either maintained or increased their multiyear APR score from last year's publicly released data.
Each academic year, every Division I sports team's APR is calculated using a simple and consistent formula. Scholarship student-athletes can earn 1 point for staying on course for a degree in their chosen major and 1 point for being retained (or graduating) at the end of each academic term. For schools that do not offer athletics scholarships, recruited student-athletes are tracked.
This is the fourth consecutive year of publicly reported APRs after a one-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, the Division I board
approved the release of APR scores but voted to continue the suspension of program penalties. Normal Academic Performance Program operations with program penalties and loss of access to postseason competition were originally scheduled to
resume in spring 2024, but the Division I Committee on Academics decided not to enforce the loss of access to postseason competition for teams that scored lower than 930
last year, instead offering a conditional waiver due to lingering impacts of the pandemic.
However, normal operations are being enforced this year for teams scoring below the 930 benchmark, with strategic penalties that encourage an emphasis and prioritization on academics.
A full list of APRs for each team can be accessed by using the
APR searchable database.
