The Elon University Athletics Department is proactive in
trying to ensure that its student-athletes continue to make
academic progress towards a degree. Having a good study
environment is paramount to success at Elon. Therefore, we
offer Structured Study as a way of providing a productive
study environment. First semester Elon University freshmen
and continuing athletes with a GPA less than 2.2 are required
to attend Structured Study under the direction of the
Director of Academic Progress. A full-time Academic Progress
counselor mentors and facilitates Structured
Study. Transfer students may attend at the request of
their coaches.
The purpose of Structured Study is to provide the
student-athlete with a better opportunity for success. The
structured study setting provides an atmosphere for studying
and also connects student-athletes with tutors for any extra
assistance that may be needed. The academic progress and
class attendance of student-athletes in study hall is
monitored.
