Please Note: The MACJC criteria follows the same as the NJCAA and nominations are based on the 2018-19 school term only and is not a cumulative GPA. Students must earn at least 24 hours in the 2018-19 school year to be eligible. Also, any hours attempted must be included if the student stays in the class beyond the 15 calendar day of the term. If a student-athlete drops the class after that point, those hours are still counted in hours attempted with zero quality points.
