TEMPE, Ariz.—Arizona State University recorded an Academic Progress Rate (APR) average of 985, the NCAA Announced on Wednesday. This year’s data represents student-athlete’s percentage of eligibility and retention rate for all sports from 2011-12 through 2014-15.
The mark is one tenth of a percent behind the department’s all-time high of 986, which was reached last year. Arizona State ranks fifth in the Pac-12 Conference, just four-tenths of a percent outside of second place. ASU’s single year APR for all sports for 2014-15 of 987 is an all-time high.
“Since the APR was instituted by the NCAA in 2003-04, our numbers have seen continued improvement across each of our sports, a direct result of the work being done by our Office of Student-Athlete Development,” Vice President for University Athletics Ray Anderson said.
