However, the reverse is not true. In going from D-III to D-I, you have to sit out a year. But since you can redshirt in D-I, players generally do that instead of losing a year.CCT '77 & '78

I also believe there is a provision in the NCAA bylaws that waives the year a Div-III athlete must sit out when going to a Div-I program, if they graduate early and have eligibility remaining, given that they are pursuing an advanced degree at an institution.
^^Don't quote me on it, but I'm pretty sure that's the case.

Originally posted by collegehcky2 View PostTransferring from a Div-I team to a Div-III, there are no eligibility restrictions, given that the student-athlete was in good standing at their previous school (i.e. passing grades, completed classes, etc.). Going from Div-III to Div-I, a student athlete must sit out two full semesters (as defined by the NCAA), in order to be eligble to participate in a Div-I sport. Therefore, if an athlete leaves a program following the fall semester, the following spring semester they would be eligble to participate in Div-I.

Re: NCAA rules for transfering
Regarding DIII player having to skip a year when moving to a DI, there is a one time only exemption that allows a player to play immediately after transfering to the DI program. If the player was never offically recruited by the DIII program he presently plays for, kind of like a walk on so to speak, he can immediately play the next season.

Re: NCAA rules for transfering
How about this situation which happened in the late 90's but maybe the rules have changed but a kid transferred in to the school my son was attending from a Canadian University where he was a full time student for three years but never played CIS hockey at the school and he was able to have four year's of eligibility to play NCAA Div. III. Would it be allowed today if it was the same exact scenario I wonder. NU Prof what do you think?

Originally posted by NUProf View PostOff the top of my head, I would say that he would have two years of eligibility. You get 5 years of full time enrollment to complete your eligibility unless exceptions are granted, I believe. I'm sure norm will find us the links that I'm too lazy to find. In DI, the eligibility clock keeps running even if you are out of school, but not so in DIII.
