University of the Sciences Compliance Home Page

INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the University of the Sciences Compliance home page! The goal of this site is to provide our boosters, alumni, fans, coaches, prospects and student-athletes information regarding the rules and regulations of the NCAA. While not all inclusive, it is meant to provide guidance in many of the situations you may encounter and should help you avoid inadvertently violating NCAA policies. Compliance of the rules and regulations is essential to creating a winning environment for all of USci’s athletic teams.


ASK BEFORE YOU ACT

It is the responsibility of every individual associated with University of the Sciences Athletics to be educated. If questions arise, we ask that you contact our Compliance Coordinator, Mr. Paul Klimitas, at (215) 596-8818 or by email (p.klimit@usp.edu). Asking questions before acting ensures that the eligibility of our department and our student-athletes is not jeopardized.
