how exactly is apr calculated, i would have thought unc would be higher

From the NCAA:

A Division I Football Bowl Subdivision team awards the full complement of 85 grants-in-aid. If 80 student-athletes remain in school and academically eligible, three remain in school but are academically ineligible and two drop out academically ineligible, the team earns 163 of 170 possible points for that term. Divide 163 by 170 and multiply by 1,000 to determine that the team’s Academic Progress Rate for that term is 959.

The NCAA calculates the rate as a rolling, four-year figure that takes into account all the points student-athletes could earn for remaining in school and academically eligible during that period. Teams that do not earn an Academic Progress Rate above specific benchmarks face penalties ranging from scholarship reductions to more severe sanctions.

So you start with 170 points if you use the full allotment of scholarships, and lose -2 for ineligible dropouts, and -1 for ineligible but enrolled student-athletes.

If you read this forum long enough you will realize why UNC is not rated higher.

They have FSU at #68 here, they are around 48 on webtronics.

a major test of I.Q. involves applying them to real life situations!

Is this for student athletes or for all the student body?

What I posted was strictly football. They are available for every sport at the NCAA’s website.

2 years in a row, Dabo and Clemson setting the bar high.  Will be such a shame when our academics nosedive once we switch conferences….....wink.

Ten basketball teams had PR scores so low that they are ineligible for the NCAA tournament this season, including UConn.

Tennessee was almost so low they got NCAA sanctions.

I am about to forget how to read just thinking about the Big 12.

UNC has been hurt by the players being kicked off and leaving early in fball, and players leaving early in bball. It stinks, but it is what it is.
