🔼 Academic Accolades. On the field isn’t the only place the Cougs had success this year.
This week, the NCAA released its 2024-25 Academic Progress Rate (APR) and five of WSU's programs, men's cross country, men's and women's golf, tennis and volleyball posted perfect multi-year scores, while 10 programs recorded perfect single-year APR scores.
The APR is an annual assessment of each team's academic and retention history. The APR holds institutions accountable for the academic progress of their student-athletes through a team-based metric that accounts for the eligibility and retention of each student-athlete for each academic term. The APR score is based on the most recent four years of data (2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24 and 2024-25).
