During a review of Alabama A&M University's Academic Performance Program (APP) data by the NCAA Division I Committee on Academics Subcommittee on Data, subcommittee members determined the documentation submitted was insufficient to verify the Academic Performance Rate (APR) and the academic eligibility of student-athletes for the 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14 academic years.The NCAA is providing Alabama A&M University with additional time to resubmit the necessary documentation. In the meantime, effective January 18, 2016, the NCAA has placed AAMU athletics on one year probation and the AAMU athletic programs are ineligible for postseason competition beginning this fall (2016-17 championships)."This is not a sanction. The post-season ban potentially can be lifted prior to the 2016-17 fall sports championships if the university corrects and re-submits the necessary data by August 15, 2016," said, Director of Athletics. "We are collaboratively working with the NCAA Division I Committee on Academics Subcommittee on Data, the Compliance Group and university administration to ensure each concern and question is fully addressed. We have also engaged a company with expertise in compliance certification, one that has assisted other SWAC institutions in a similar manner."As required, all student-athletes were notified of the NCAA ruling and how it would apply to them. The Department of Athletics, the university Registrar's Office, faculty and staff and President Dr. Andrew Hugine Jr. are committed to resolving the issues revealed by the NCAA Division I Committee on Academics Subcommittee on Data as quickly as possible.
