Canisius College Compliance

Canisius College is wholeheartedly committed to the doctrine of institutional control in operating its athletics program in a manner consistent with the letter and the spirit of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) and the College’s rules and regulations.

The Athletics Compliance Office directs this effort and serves as a resource center concerning NCAA regulations and compliance issues. The principle function of the Athletics Compliance Office is to oversee and verify the accurate and timely completion of NCAA-required procedures. In addition, we provide educational programming and interpretive support to ensure that all individuals involved with the athletics program fully understand the College's compliance guidelines and expectations. It is the responsibility of the Athletics Compliance Office to ensure that the compliance demands of the NCAA, the MAAC, and of Canisius College are properly supported.

If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact our staff at any time. Please remember, it always critical to ASK BEFORE YOU ACT.
