Five Toledo sports have highest APR in Mid-American Conference
Toledo, Ohio - The NCAA released its annual Academic Progress Rate (APR) figures today for the four-year period from 2018-19 to 2021-22, and once again the University of Toledo received very impressive scores across the board.
All 16 Rocket varsity sports had at least a 975 score, well above the NCAA's "cut point" of 930, with Men's Golf, Women's Basketball, Women's Soccer and Women's Tennis leading the way with perfect 1000 marks. These four sports plus Men's Basketball had either the highest APR score or were tied for the highest score in the Mid-American Conference.
APR is a gauge of every team's academic performance at a given point in time. Points are awarded on a semester-by-semester basis for eligibility, retention and graduation of scholarship student-athletes. "1000" is considered a perfect score. Sports that fail to reach the "cut point" (930) can be penalized with the loss of scholarships, practice restrictions and post-season bans. The APR data released today is a cumulative figure taken from the 2018-19, 2019-20, 2020-21 and 2021-22 school years.
