Compliance with NCAA regulations is of the highest priority to Radford University and the Department of Athletics. The purpose of the Radford Compliance Office is to ensure the University's nearly 300 student- athletes and coaches abide by the NCAA Division I rules and regulations; while also educating university staff, alumni, boosters, and donors.
Prior to a prospective student- athlete's arrival to RU, the Compliance Office confirms each individual's eligibility to practice, compete and receive financial aid at the NCAA Division I level. During one's tenure at Radford, the Compliance Office continually advises and monitors each student-athlete's progress towards a successful graduation.
Additionally, the Radford Compliance Office is committed and compelled to enforce the rules and regulations in the areas of recruiting, amateurism, financial aid, and extra benefits. The Radford Office works closely with each of the team's coaches in these areas and notifies the NCAA and the Big South Conference of all violations - should they occur.
The importance of following all NCAA guidelines is imperative to maintaining the integrity of Radford and its intercollegiate athletics. Strict adherence to rules is a never-ending process that requires the combined effort of the Department of Athletics, student-athletes, coaches, and the entire university community. Therefore, in order to protect the eligibility of current and prospective student-athletes, the Radford Compliance Office urges you to "Always, Ask before you Act."
