Community Service Florida Academic Scholars Award, Florida Medallion Award, Gold Seal Vocational Award
Bright Futures
To access an award through the Bright Futures Program, a student must complete a program of community service work, as approved by the school, which will require the student to identify a social problem that interests him or her, develop a plan for his or her personal involvement in addressing the problem, and
through papers or other presentations, evaluate and reflect upon his or her experience. (Florida Statute 1009.534)
Community Service is defined as identifying and addressing a social issue in the community. This requires students to look beyond themselves and reach out to an issue faced by our society today (i.e. poverty, abuse, elderly citizen, homelessness). These hours will meet the requirement for the Florida Bright Futures Award Program.
Volunteer Service is defined as assisting where needed and does not necessarily address a social issue. Although these hours are not recorded on the transcript, students can keep a log of these activities for use when applying for college, job applications, awards and scholarships other than Bright Futures.

NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association)
Steps to Achieving your Eligibility: Senior Year
• Take the ACT and/or SAT again, if necessary. The NCAA Eligibility Center will use the best scores from each section of the ACT or SAT to determine your best cumulative score. • Continue to take college-preparatory courses. • Check the courses you have taken to match your school’s List of NCAA Courses. • Continue to work hard to earn the best grades possible. • Graduate on time with your graduating class (eight semesters after starting year nine). • After graduation, ask your high school counselor to send your final official transcript to the NCAA Eligibility Center with proof of graduation. The NCAA Eligibility Center accepts transcripts electronically.
NCAA Eligibility Center
Registration
Online Registration: The NCAA Eligibility Center has designed a website with you, the student-athlete, in mind. This is where you will find the tools and information you need to begin your college experience as a student-athlete. To register with the NCAA Eligibility Center, go to www.eligibilitycenter.org and click the link to enter as an NCAA College-Bound Student-Athlete. To create an account, either click on the “New Account” button at the top right corner of the screen or the cell phone on the left side of the screen. Account Creation: Provide a valid email address to create an account and begin the registration process. Be sure you provide an email address that will be active even after you complete high school. About Me: In this section, enter some quick facts about your name, address, date of birth and gender. My Coursework: Enter the name and location of the high school you currently attend. If you have attended more than one school (including summer school) during grades nine, 10, 11 or 12, you will need to have that information ready as well. List all schools you previously attended. Make sure to include all schools, regardless of whether you received grades or credits. If you attended ninth grade at a junior high school located in the same school system in which you later attended high school, do not list the ninth-grade school. You must also include information about whether you took any nontraditional courses, including online or credit recovery.
My Sport: Select the sport(s) you plan to participate in at an NCAA Division I or II college or university. The NCAA Eligibility Center will also ask about the nonscholastic and/or club teams you have been on and events you have participated in during your high school career. Payment: Your account will be eligible for processing once the registration fee has been paid (or submission of a fee waiver if you have been granted a waiver). You must pay online by debit, credit card or e-check. Effective September 1, 2014, the registration fee will increase to $75 for U.S., U.S. Territories and Canadian students. You are eligible for a waiver of the registration fee only if you have already received a waiver of the SAT or ACT fee (this is not the same as a U.S. state voucher). You must have an authorized high school official submit your fee waiver documentation online after you have completed your registration. If you have not yet been granted a fee waiver by SAT or ACT, you are not yet eligible for a waiver of the NCAA Eligibility Center registration fee.
Grade-Point Average
Only courses that appear on your high school’s List of NCAA Courses will be used in the calculation of your core GPA. • NCAA Divisions I and II require 16 core courses. Division I • A Sliding Scale is used to match test scores and core GPAs. The Sliding Scale can be found at www.2point3.org or on Page No. 10 of the Guide for the College-Bound Student-Athlete found at www.eligibilitycenter.org. • Division II • The Division II core GPA requirement is a minimum of 2.000.
SAT and ACT Test Scores
• Division I uses a Sliding Scale to match test scores and core GPA. • The SAT score used for NCAA purposes includes only the critical reading and math sections. The writing section of the SAT is not used. • The ACT sum score used for NCAA purposes is a sum of the following four sections: English, mathematics, reading and science.

1. Achieve a minimum
of 18 on the ACT or 860 on the SAT.
2. Achieve a
minimum overall high school grade point average of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale
3. Graduate in the
top half of your high school class.
Tests must be taken on a state, national or international testing
date; scores must be achieved on a single
test. The SAT must be achieved on the Critical
Reading and Math sections only. The
Writing score cannot be used. You must
pass the standardized test prior to the term in
which you want to participate in athletics. When registering for the tests, students should indicate the
NAIA code “9876” to have their scores sent
directly to the NAIA Eligibility Center.
The NAIA accepts the grade point
average determined by the high school,
provided it is recorded and
awarded in the same manner as for every other student at the
school
If a student’s class rank does not appear on the
transcript, a signed letter from the
principal or headmaster, written
on the school’s letterhead and with the school’s official
seal, stating the student’s final class
rank position or percent may be
submitted.
NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics)
The National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics is a governing body of small athletic programs that are dedicated to character-driven intercollegiate athletics.
Do I meet the freshman eligibility requirements?
If you will graduate from a U.S. high school this spring and enroll in college this coming fall, the requirements are simple. An entering freshman must:
Be a graduate of an accredited high school or be accepted as a regular student in good standing as defined by the enrolling institution and
Meet two of the three following requirements. If as an entering freshman you do not meet at least two of the three standards, you cannot participate in athletics for the first full year of attendance (2 semesters, 3 quarters, or equivalent).
MUST MEET TWO OF THREE
NAIA Eligibility Center at PlayNAIA.org determines eligibility of all first-time NAIA student-athletes
The NAIA Eligibility Center, at PlayNAIA.org, is responsible for determining the NAIA eligibility of first-time student-athletes. Students must have their eligibility determined by the NAIA Eligibility Center, and all NAIA schools are bound by the center’s decisions. Every student interested in playing sports at NAIA colleges for the first time needs to register online with the NAIA Eligibility Center. This applies to high school seniors and transfers from both two- and four-year colleges. What information will I need to provide? You’ll create a personal profile with the basic facts about your academic history and sports participation to date.
You’ll need your current contact information, previous residences and addresses, high schools attended and history of your sports participation during and after high school graduation.
When you register for the ACT or SAT, include the NAIA Eligibility Center (9876) on the list of places test scores should be sent.
Ask your high school counselors to send the NAIA Eligibility Center a final official transcript that verifies high school graduation, class rank and cumulative grade point average.
What are the costs? Registration for students from the U.S. and Canada is $70. Transfer students pay $90. This is a one-time nonrefundable registration fee and includes all services of the NAIA Eligibility Center. The registration fee will be waived for students with demonstrated need. If you receive a fee waiver for the ACT or SAT test or qualify for the federal free or reduced- cost lunch program, contact your high school counselor, who can provide confirmation of your eligibility for a fee waiver to the NAIA Eligibility Center. Do I need to register with the NAIA Eligibility Center if I’m registering with the NCAA?
Determining if you meet eligibility requirements for NAIA eligibility is separate from NCAA eligibility certification. The NAIA and NCAA are two separate associations, with two different sets of rules and certification processes.
