Re: Fall/Spring transfer eligibility guidelines ???
Originally posted by NUProf View PostIf they were eligible at their original school, they are eligible at the new school as soon as they are considered enrolled there - typically the first day of classes. If they practiced with the team at the original school beyond the first game of the season, they have used a season of eligibility whether they played in a game or not. If they didn't practice after the first game, and don't play at the new school, they don't use up a season.

Originally posted by bayliner2555 View PostNUProf, that was an excellent answer to a common question. Do the same rules apply if the change of schools is between semesters and is there a limitation on how many times a player can change schools?2007-2008 ECAC East/NESCAC Interlock Pick 'em winner

I don't know, but I learned pretty quickly that when he speaks on matters like this, it's best to get out of the way, sit back, shut up, and listen. Chances are that I'm going to learn something.FERRIS STATE UNIVERSITY: 2012 FROZEN FOUR

Originally posted by jemica View PostSo you feel that even if they practice without dressing for any game before the transfer that season eligibility starts....I was also told that as long as they don't play in a game or organized scrimmage with the team that they would not have used up any eligibility......Last edited by NUProf; 11-19-2009, 04:51 PM.2007-2008 ECAC East/NESCAC Interlock Pick 'em winner

Re: Fall/Spring transfer eligibility guidelines ???
Originally posted by NUProf View PostThey can practice until the first game of the season with no loss of eligibility. If you practice after the first game you have used a year of eligibility. The purpose of this rule is to make it impossible for someone to "red shirt" in DIII, but allow someone who is cut during tryouts to transfer and not lose eligibility if he doesn't play until the following season. (This is part of the DIII "reform" package that was pushed by the NESCAC a few years ago)
