According to the NCAA, Division I teams calculate APRs each academic year, with ratings based on the eligibility, graduation, and retention of student-athletes.
Dartmouth has been ranked among the top three programs in the country in each of the 10 years since the award program was established. During that time, Dartmouth has received a total of 234 awards, more than any other Division I institution.
