What We Cover
- How the NCAA Transfer Portal actually works — step by step — and the consequences that kick in the moment you enter, including what happens to your scholarship
- The new "5 years to play 5 seasons" eligibility model, how your clock starts, and which rules apply to you based on when you enrolled
- How your NIL agreements are affected by a transfer, what exit provisions and liquidated damages clauses mean for you, and why you should never sign anything at a new school until eligibility is confirmed
- The exact transfer window dates for every NCAA Division I sport — and the January 2026 rule changes that altered football, basketball, and wrestling windows
- What boosters, collectives, and the House settlement mean for recruiting — including what schools can legally offer and where the lines are
- The questions every athlete must ask their current school, every recruiting school, and themselves before making a final decision
- The pre-entry checklist that protects you legally before you ever notify compliance — including financial aid review, NIL contract audit, and eligibility verification
- How to access BSG's full range of services, from a one-hour consultation to full done-for-you portal navigation, and what each one covers
