#NextLevelDragons National Signing Day FAQs What is signing day and who participates? WHAT ARE THE 2021-2022 DATES? WHO SIGNS AN NLI? HOW DO I PARTICIPATE IN NATIONAL SIGNING DAY? IF I AM GOING TO WALK-ON, DO I SIGN AN NLI? WHAT DO I WEAR? NLI MEMBERSHIP
The National Letter of Intent (NLI) is a voluntary program with regard to both institutions and student-athletes. No prospective student-athlete or parent is required to sign the NLI and no institution is required to join the program. The NLI is a binding agreement between a prospective student-athlete and an NLI member institution.
Prospective student-athletes enrolling in a four-year institution for the first time can sign an NLI. Student-athletes who start their academic career at a four-year institution and then transfer to a two-year college may also sign an NLI if they plan to enter a second four-year institution. Student-athletes that will be attending Division III, NAIA and Ivy League schools can still participate in this event.
Each student-athlete looking to participate in national signing day should work directly through their respective head coach to ensure they are included.
No. An institution is strictly prohibited from allowing you to sign an NLI if you are a non-scholarship walk-on. In order for an NLI to be considered valid, it must be accompanied by an athletics financial aid award letter, which lists the terms and conditions of the award, including the amount of the financial aid. The athletics financial aid offer must be signed by both the prospective student-athlete and his or her parent or legal guardian. Simply put, there must be an athletics scholarship for an NLI to be valid.
College attire and/or business professional attire. You can bring a hat if you want to but it is not required.
