To be eligible for All-Academic team honors, a student must have a cumulative GPA of 3.2 or higher and cannot be a freshman or a first-year transfer; other factors include leadership, service, and extracurricular involvement. The members are then selected based on a conference-wide vote by the league's Sports Information Directors or Faculty Athletic Representatives. There is no vote for Honor Roll honorees; all students with a 3.0 or better that have competed against outside competition are recognized.
