CCCAA & Ohlone Community College Eligibility Student-athletes must comply with the following California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA) Constitution and Bylaws to be eligible to compete in his/her sport: A student-athlete must be continuously and actively enrolled and attending class in a minimum of 12 units at Ohlone College during their season of competition. Note: 60 units are needed to graduate. See your athletics counselor to see if this is possible for you to do in four semesters. At least 9 units of the 12 units required for participation must be taken in courses counting toward graduation, remedial, transfer, and/or certification as defined by the college catalog, and consistent with the athlete’s Student Education Plan (SEP). If at any time an athlete drops below 12 units during competition, he/she becomes ineligible to compete. All student-athletes must be enrolled in their specific sport’s ATHL/PE course(s) (if it is offered). A student-athlete must pass 24 units or more with at least a 2.0 GPA prior to the start of his/her second season of competition. If they don’t meet above requirements, they will be ineligible to compete. Men and Women’s Basketball season spans 2 semesters and all basketball studentathletes must be continuously enrolled in 12 units during the entire 2 semesters. If a student-athlete finishes the fall semester with less than 12 units, they will not be eligible to play until the start of their second semester. They will also need to be registered in at least 12 units during their second semester (9 of which applies to SEP). All student-athletes must have a Student Education Plan (SEP) on file with both the Counseling and Athletics departments. For those student-athletes whose first competition in any sport occurs in the fall, they are due October 15th. And for those student-athletes first competing in the spring, they are due March 1st. If the SEP is not completed by the date mentioned, he/she becomes ineligible until this is completed. This plan will set a timeline of the courses to be taken and during which semester based on the educational needs of the student-athlete. All educational plans are individually tailored to each student-athlete based on their learning ability, needs and goals. Mike De Unamuno is the athletics counselor; appointments can be made with him at the Fremont Ohlone Counseling Department Window in Building 7, 3rd Floor.
