"At the request of the Division I Football Bowl Subdivision Oversight Committee, the NCAA staff issued a blanket waiver suspending the school limit on the number of official recruiting visits available to FBS members for hosting football prospective student-athletes. The waiver is effective immediately and is in place for football's current recruiting cycle (April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025).

The committee requested the waiver to provide schools additional flexibility to address the impact of recent changes in NCAA legislation (immediate eligibility for undergraduate four-year college transfers and unlimited official visits for prospective student-athletes) and the intercollegiate environment.

Prospective student-athletes can visit a school as many times as they like for an unofficial (self-financed) visit, and a school can host a prospect for one official visit. Since December 2022, FBS programs have been able to host a maximum of 70 official visits for football prospects from April 1 to the following March 31.

The committee will continue to review football official visits and assess the intercollegiate environment to determine whether to introduce legislation to modify football's official visit limit. The Division I Football Championship Subdivision Oversight Committee is scheduled to discuss institutional limits on official visits Monday."
