Dear ICSA, The ICSA All-Academic Sailing Team nomination form is now available: http://collegesailing.org/resources/all-academic-nomination-form
The nomination period will close Friday, June 2nd at 5 pm EDT. No late submissions will be accepted once nomination period closes. Here are a few answers to common questions: Q: I am a eligible sailor, can I nominate myself? A: Yes, if you are a junior or senior, have sailed or been a reserve at 7 events, and have a GPA above 3.3, you are eligible. Q: Do off-shore regattas count? A: If you represent your school as a member of the off-shore sailing team at a non-collegiate event that occurs during the collegiate season, these events may count but must be listed on the nomination form. Further questions about off-shore eligibility should be referred to ICSA President Mitch Brindley and All-Academic chair Matt Lindblad. Q: I don't have my 2nd semester grades yet, what do I do? A: Your current GPA as it appears on your transcript is acceptable, as long as it includes first semester or second trimester grades from this academic year. It is very important that you complete the nomination form on time. Q: How do I know how many regattas I sailed? A: Go to scores.collegesailing.org and find your name in your team's results. Click on the hyper-linked name, you can view all the events at which they appeared on the RP form as a sailor or reserve. Q: I haven't sailed or been a reserve at 7 events yet, but my team is qualified for nationals and I will be a reserve/sailor there. What should I do? A: Please note this on the form. The team will not be named until after the coed championships are completed.
