The College Sports Information Directors of America began the distinguished Academic All-America program in 1952, and since then, has honored thousands of deserving student-athletes from numerous sports across all divisions with these elite Academic All-America scholar-athlete honors.
CoSIDA sponsors Academic All-America programs for men's soccer, women's soccer, football, volleyball, men's basketball, women's basketball, baseball, softball and men's and women's track and field/cross country. Many other sports are eligible through the At-Large program.
Starting with the 1987-88 seasons, CoSIDA began selecting an Academic All-American of the Year in each sport and an overall Academic All-American of the Year by division.
The Academic All-America program is comprised of four divisional teams, with student-athletes being honored separately in Division I, Division II and Division III. The College Division team is comprised of NAIA, Canadian, and two-year student-athletes. This format began in the 2011-12 academic year. Previously there were two teams - University Division (D1) and a College Division (all others).
To be nominated, a student-athlete must be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.30 cumulative grade point average (on a 4.0 scale) at his/her current institution.
At the beginning of the 2022-23 academic year, CoSIDA re-branded to College Sports Communicators (CSC), carrying out the same criteria regarding sponsored sports, rules, and requirements for the Academic All-American awards, with the only change being that a student-athlete must now be a starter or important reserve with at least a 3.50 cumulative grade point average.
