THE FLATS – Georgia Tech student-athletes continue to achieve at a high level academically, according to the latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) data released by the NCAA on Tuesday.
APR is an annual scorecard of academic achievement calculated for all NCAA Division I sports teams. It measures eligibility, graduation and retention each semester or academic term and provides a clear picture of the academic performance for each team in every sport. APR scores are measured on a scale of 1,000 with the threshold for penalties set at 930. The most recent multiyear scores are based on the 2020-21, 2021-22, 2022-23 and 2023-24 academic years.
Highlights of Georgia Tech’s APR success include:
- five programs – men’s cross country, golf, men’s tennis, men’s track and field and women’s swimming and diving – with a perfect multiyear APR of 1,000 (up from four in 2022-23);
- 13-of-15 sports programs* having multiyear APR scores that surpass or equal the national average in their respective sport;
- 9-of-15 sports boasting a perfect single-year APR for the 2023-24 academic year (up from eight in 2023-24).
