All of Georgia State’s teams exceeded the NCAA’s minimum APR requirements in data released on Wednesday.

Six teams exceeded multi-year averages of 980, with softball and women’s cross cross country posting perfect scores of 1,000.

The APR is a measure used by the NCAA to make sure that student-athletes are progressing through school at an acceptable pace. Each athlete receiving financial aid earns one retention point and eligibility point for maintaining academic eligibility.

Teams must meet a four-year average of 930 to remain eligible for the postseason.

Baseball: 949

Football: 944

Men’s basketball: 938

Men’s golf: 979
