Employment During the Academic Year:Student-athletes are permitted to earn legitimate on and off campus employment income during semester or term time.

Please note:

• The student-athlete may not receive any remuneration for the value or utility that the student-athlete may have for the employer because of the publicity, reputation, fame, or personal following he or she has obtained because of athletic ability.
• The student-athlete is to be compensated only for work actually performed, and

Student-athletes who are currently employed or who anticipate working during the academic year must contact the compliance officer to review the NCAA Guidelines concerning employment.

• The student-athlete is to be compensated at the going rate for camp counselors of like teaching ability and camp experience.
• The student-athlete who only lectures or demonstrates at a camp may not receive compensation for his or her appearance at the camp.

Fee-for-Lesson Instruction. A student-athlete may receive compensation for teaching or coaching sports skills or techniques in his or her sport on a fee-for-lesson basis, provided:

• Institutional facilities are not used;
• Playing lessons shall not be permitted;
• The institution obtains and keeps on file documentation of the recipient of the lesson(s) and the fee charged for the lesson(s) provided during any time of the year; and

SJU Policy for Fee for Lesson Instruction: Student-athletes are to discuss the opportunity with the head coach to make sure academics or team activities will not be sacrificed.

SJU Procedure:

Student-athletes interested in providing lessons for a fee must meet with the Director of Compliance.

The Director of Compliance will review all NCAA rules with the student-athlete.

The student-athlete is to outline the lesson's plan, i.e. who will receive the lesson, where will the lessons be conducted, what is the "going rate".

The student-athlete will complete the written employment form.
