NON-TRADITIONAL HOUSING
for STUDENT-ATHLETES
Living with Stanford Donors/Fans/Alumni
Student-athletes are permitted to live with supporters
of Stanford Athletics, but there is certain information
that has been relayed to all student-athletes about
their arrangement and the process for prior approval
from the Compliance Services Office.
1) Student-athletes must pay the fair market value for
their arrangement. The Compliance Services Office
will set this value for each individual student-athlete
given their housing arrangement and communicate all
information to the student-athlete and their landlord.
The monthly rent needs to be paid within the first 3
days of each month (and within the first 3 days of the
move-in date). All rental payments are to be droppped
off with Compliance Services, and the university will
issue a check to the homeowner.
2) Student-athletes are permitted to work for their
landlord to reduce their rent by a maximum of 50%.
This work will be documented and agreed upon
between the student-athlete, their landlord, and the
compliance services office prior to any type of work
performance or rent reduction.
3) Please have any student-athletes contact David
Hall in the Compliance Services Office if they will be
living with a Stanford supporter at any time.

INTERPRETATION
COACHING CLINIC SPONSORED BY
A RECRUITING OR SCOUTING SERVICE
Date Published: May 9, 2014
The [NCAA] determined that an athletics department
staff member may not be employed (either on a salaried
or a volunteer basis) in any capacity by a coaches clinic
established, sponsored or conducted by an individual or
organization that provides recruiting or scouting services
concerning prospective student-athletes, even if prospective
student athletes are not involved in the coaches clinic.
Just Axe!
compliance question of the month
The football recruiting coordinator at Ocean State University
(OSU) is dividing up the telephone calls to senior prospects.
There are several prospects located in different time zones.
In these situations, do the OSU coaches use their time zone
or the prospect's time zone to determine when calls may be
made?

A Non-Traditional Housing Agreement Form
is required before their move-in date! Free or
reduced-rate housing is an extra benefit and will
immediately hinder a student-athlete’s eligibility!
Schedule your Fall Eligibility Meeting!
Please contact Shannon Wilson in the Compliance Services Office to schedule your fall eligibility meeting. The fall
eligibility meetings will last approximately one hour. As a reminder, your student-athletes cannot participate in any
countable athletically-related activities including team meetings, practice, conditioning, strength training, testing,
etc. until after they have met with our office and received a physical exam (or have otherwise been cleared by
Sports Medicine). All student-athletes need to be at the meeting, and one coach should be in attendance as well.
