I am being recruited to play a sport at an NJCAA member college. I just signed a Letter of Intent (LOI) with an NJCAA member institution. What limitations do I have as I continue in the recruiting process?
Anytime you sign an LOI with an NJCAA member college you are committing to that school for the terms of the contract covering one academic year. You are committing to that school just as the school is committing to you by offering you an LOI. By signing the LOI, you are now an unrecruitable student-athlete. As an unrecruitable student-athlete you are not permitted to have any contact with any other NJCAA member college’s athletic department staff or representative.
As a student-athlete signed to an LOI, your name will be listed on the NJCAA website as being signed and committed to that particular member college. Once the LOI is signed and submitted, you can check your status at the following website link.

Signing the NJCAA LOI, commits you to that NJCAA member college and the recruiting process is now final. If you are unsure if the school who is offering you an LOI is the ‘right’ fit for you, do not sign the LOI. Once you sign the offer your options are immediately limited. Where you choose to go to school is a huge decision. Give it its due respect and attention!
