windows will be modified to 45 days<\/a>, beginning seven days after championship selection.<\/p>\n“We are pleased the student-athlete voice was acknowledged and emphasized as part of the conversation about amending transfer windows,” said Cody Shimp, chair of the Division I SAAC and former baseball student-athlete at St. Bonaventure, in a statement. “We are happy that the council was able to find common ground and push forward a 45-day window to continue to provide a reasonable period of time for student-athletes to make rational and informed decisions about their athletic and academic futures.”<\/p>\n
Data from the first year of the notification-of-transfer windows indicate that 61% of student-athletes who transfer are entered into the NCAA transfer portal within the first 30 days.<\/p>\n
The council also heard from the Legislative Committee on an update to graduate transfer waiver guidelines.

The council expressed support for the current transfer waiver guidelines for student-athletes who have transferred multiple times as undergraduate students.<\/p>\n
