ADDITIONAL MINIMUM AGREED-UPON PROCEDURES

In order for the NCAA to place reliance on the Division I financial reporting to calculate the Division I NCAA revenue distributions, which is a financial benefit to the institution, the following procedure are required:

1. Grants-in-Aid:

  • Compare and agree the sports sponsored reported in the NCAA Membership Financial Reporting System to the Calculation of Revenue Distribution Equivalencies Report (CRDE) from Compliance Assistant (CA) or other report that supports the equivalency calculations from the institution. The NCAA Membership Financial Reporting System populates the sports from the NCAA Sports Sponsorship and Demographics Form as they are reported by the institution between May and August. If there is a discrepancy in the sports sponsored between the NCAA Membership Financial Reporting System and the CRDE or other report that supports the equivalency calculations, inquire about the discrepancy and report the justification in the AUP report.
  • Compare current year Grants-in-Aid revenue distribution equivalencies to prior year reported equivalencies per the Membership Financial Report submission. Inquire and document an explanation for any variance great than +/- 4%.

2. Sports Sponsorship:

  • Obtain the institution’s Sports Sponsorship and Demographics Form submitted to NCAA Research for the reporting year. Validate that the countable NCAA sports reported by the institution met the minimum requirements, set forth in Bylaw 20.10.6.3, related to the number of contests and the number of participants. If the institution requested and/or received a waiver related to minimum contests or minimum participants for a sport, that sport would not qualify as a sponsored sport for the purposes of revenue distribution. Also, only sports in which the NCAA conducts championships competition, emerging sports for women and bowl subdivision football are eligible. Once the countable sports have been validated, ensure that the institution has properly reported these sports as countable for revenue distribution purposes within the NCAA Membership Financial Reporting System. Note: Any discrepancies MUST be resolved within the NCAA Membership Financial Reporting System prior to the report being submitted to the NCAA.
  • Compare current year number of Sports Sponsored to prior year reported total per the Membership Financial Report submission. Inquire and document an explanation for any variance.

3. Pell Grants:

  • a. Agree the total number of Division I student-athletes who, during the academic year, received a Pell Grant award (e.g. Pell Grant recipients on Full Athletic Aid, Pell Grant recipients on Partial Athletic Aid and Pell Grant recipients with no
