No Player gets final clearance until after the final HS transcript
What a player gets prior to that is usually a conditional approval
Keep in mind that signing does not necessarily mean you are accepted academically to the school
There instances where kids sign and then they find out they are not accepted to the school academically.
TRhit
Just remember the your player needs to request that his final transcipt be sent to the Clearinghouse when he requests a final transcipt to be sent to the college. At our high school the student must make the request and you better double ck to make sure it does get sent!
The problem we're having w/ registering him early- Winter of Junior year, is that they used his transcript up through his SOPHOMORE year and now are saying he's lacking certain requirements for D1/DII eligibility. The school has sent everything in, but I'm worried they aren't going to "catch up" in time.
Does that ever happen??

I sent my sons registration in last June and recieved his initial approval in December. The letter stated final approval would be given after they had his final transcript which the school will send them after graduation. The letter also said they take seniors first and prioritize the seniors if they have had colleges request their status.
I waited to register BK due to the fact that he would not have all of his classes behind him. So I did in right before his senior year started.
I did it online in August. Had the school send his transcript in Sept. He only needed one course to match up with the required courses.
I checked online a month or so back and BK has "preliminary clearance" - it shows he needs that last required course which he taking now.
Shortly after that we rec'd his paper copy of such and it shows 2 things needed..that one class and his final transcript.
And we will follow up on that for sure.

When my oldest went for his orientation in July before his freshman yr. There were kids who forgot to send in the final transciptto the clearinghouse. The coach told them to get it done immediately or they could not practice. These kids were able to get their final approval before the Sept 1st practice. This was for swimming but it would be the same for baseball.
MA,
We too received a preliminary report last year. Final transcript was sent in June after graduation. I contacted the Clearinghouse to ask why it was not processed. They took care of it right away. As of today he is cleared and listed as a qualifier for DI and DII. We are good to go.

My experience was --
It took Clearinghouse approx. 5 months to post a preliminary approval with a statement that he needed one more English credit (his Senior English) and a copy of his final HS transcript.
That's using the fast track method of submitting everything over the internet.
I understand they do give priority to Seniors.
So, do it today.

MrandMrsBaseball, I had this happen this year, we registered early as well. My son is now a Sr and the high school has sent an updated transcript but his file at the clearinghouse still has not been updated. I emailed the clearinghouse this week to check on it and they replied right away letting me know that they had his updated transcript and to check his file online again in about 10 days, that it should be updated by then. He still won't receive final clearance until after they get his transcript after graduation.
...my experience was that when the college called for the information it was instantly updated..........after sitting there for about five months.............
Parents of 05 and 06's--Please make sure that your son is taking the core courses approved by the NCAA. Check with your guidance department or enter your high school name at the Clearinghouse website to get the approved courses.
There were several cases at our school where the courses that the students were taking were not those listed as core courses. These students could get in to college with those courses, but would not have been able to participate in NCAA sports. As a result they had to double up on some courses senior year. Please don't let that happen to you.
