The NCAA annually honors teams earning multiyear Academic Progress Rates in the top 10 percent of all squads in each sport. The announcement is part of the overall Division I academic reform effort and is intended to highlight teams that demonstrate a commitment to academic progress and retention of student-athletes by achieving the top APRs within their respective sports. Specifically, these teams posted multiyear APRs in the top 10 percent of all squads in each sport. Every Division I sports team calculates its APR each academic year, based on the eligibility, graduation and retention of each scholarship student-athlete. Rates are based on the past four years' performance. The APR provides a real-time look at a team's academic success each semester by tracking the academic progress of each student-athlete on scholarship.
The Academic Progress Rate (APR) holds institutions accountable for the academic progress of their student-athletes through a team-based metric that accounts for the eligibility and retention of each student-athlete for each academic term.
APR is calculated as follows:
Each student-athlete receiving athletically related financial aid earns one point for staying in school and one point for being academically eligible.
A team's total points are divided by points possible and then multiplied by 1,000 to equal the team's Academic Progress Rate.
In addition to a team's current-year APR, its rolling four-year APR is also used to determine accountability.
A complete list of Monmouth programs with perfect multi-year APR scores broken down by year is below.
