The NCAA approved the new five-for-five eligibility model. Athletes will now have five seasons of eligibility to be completed within a five-year window that starts either when the athlete enrolls full-time at any college or the first academic year after their 19th birthday. It essentially grants an extra season of eligibility but eliminates medical redshirts and exemptions for other extenuating circumstances. Maternity leave, religious exemptions, and military service are the only exceptions.
