South Dakota to offer full cost of attendance in 2016-17

Post by dbackjon »

University of South Dakota department of athletics announced today it will provide cost of attendance stipends in all 17 sports beginning with the 2016-17 season.

"Being a student-athlete at South Dakota is a full-time commitment and as such, it's important that we support our athletes in any way we can," said South Dakota Athletics Director David Herbster. "We are fully committed to a Division I championship mindset and this is the next step for Coyote athletics."

Cost of attendance is the gap between the full cost of attendance and the value of tuition, fees, room, board and books, which is the traditional definition of a scholarship. NCAA rules adopted in January and put into place Aug. 1 now allow for scholarships to include expenses such as academic-related supplies, transportation and other personal incidentals. The value of those benefits at University of South Dakota will be up to $4,145 per full scholarship.
