Scholarship Changes At NCAA Propose Capping Aid At 30 Football
New Orleans AP reports the NCAA Financial Aid Committee urged a two part plan to curb rising costs. It would cap athletic scholarships at 30 in football and six in basketball and base aid on family need using the federal tax return. Families would pay their calculated amount annually, with the rest covered by the school athletic aid. A second proposal would require simultaneous scholarship invitations and a one week decision period, after which the athlete could not switch schools.
