It’s National Signing Day. Find out where Charlotte-area stars are heading for college

It’s National Signing Day for many high school seniors in the Charlotte-area, a process that will soon be changing.

In October, the NCAA decided to eliminate the National Letter of Intent (NLI), which has been used since the 1960s for student-athletes to announce where they intend to attend college. It will be replaced with financial aid agreements between the NCAA and student-athletes.

But for the current seniors, basketball and all Division I and Division II sports can sign beginning today. The early basketball signing period runs until Nov. 20. All other sports can sign anytime before Aug. 1, 2025.

The Division I football early signing period is Dec. 4-6. The regular football signing period for D1 and D2 athletes begins Feb. 5. The D1 signing period ends April 1. For D2 schools it ends Aug. 1.

We’ll be tracking where Charlotte-area athletes are signing. Check back often as this list will update.
