Ohio State recorded a score of 993 in the latest NCAA Division I Academic Progress Rate data released Tuesday, its highest in the 19 years of APR, the school said in a press release.
The data tracks academic progress toward a degree. It's based on academic eligibility, retention and graduation rates. It does not factor in grade point average.
The score released Tuesday reflects performance on a multi-year rate from the 2018-19 through 2021-22 academic years.
The football program's score of 993 is its highest ever. It was 988 a year ago. A perfect score is 1,000. That was achieved by seven OSU sports: men's and women's cross country, men's and women's golf, rifle, men's soccer and women's volleyball.
