NCAA releases updated Academic Progress Rate for every SEC football program
Published:
The latest APR scores have been released and the good news is no Southeastern Conference program is in danger of missing out on postseason play due to poor academics.
In order to participate in postseason play, a program must accomplish a score of at least 930. The lowest total this year in the SEC is 951.
The NCAA describes the Academic Progress Rate as “a team-based metric that accounts for the eligibility and retention of each student-athlete, each term.” The multi-year rates cover a four-year period, meaning the latest results cover 2014-15, 2015-16, 2016-17 and 2017-18 academic calendar years.
Here’s a visual breakdown of how the APR scores are determined by the NCAA:
