BIRMINGHAM, Ala.(June 3, 2021) - The Southeastern Conference announced it will allow immediate eligibility for intraconference transfers following a vote today by the SEC's Presidents and Chancellors.

The change in policy, which takes effect immediately, will better align with NCAA legislation adopted in April 2021 that established a universal one-time transfer opportunity applicable to student-athletes across all sports.

As a result of the SEC's new policy, student-athletes who transfer directly within the Conference will no longer be required to serve an automatic year in residence at their new school before being eligible for competition.
