Many times, student-athletes don’t realize that they qualify for waivers or appeals that could possibly extend their eligibility, rule them immediately eligible for competition, or allow for a scholarship or appeal hearing.
A few of the situations where a waiver or appeal might apply include:
- The student-athlete has been injured in competition, hurt in an accident or had an illness that affects their ability to compete.
- A coach or athletic department has cancelled a student-athlete’s scholarship for “violating team rules.”
- A student-athlete has extenuating circumstances including illness or death of family and they need to take a break from competition.
- A student-athlete is denied eligibility and there are extenuating circumstances.
Are You Wondering if Your Student-Athlete Qualifies for a Waiver or Appeal?
During a confidential Waivers & Appeals Consult, Rick will ask questions to determine if the student-athlete qualifies for either and then will discuss available options and best set of “next steps.”
