UCF women's volleyball players are expected to excel not only on the court, but in the classroom as well. In the latest Academic Progress Rate (APR) scores, which measure eligibility, retention and graduation over a four-year period, all 16 teams at UCF exceeded the NCAA's standards. Of the 12 Floridian schools which have competed at the Division I level annually since 2004, UCF's 962 average multi-year APR ranks third trailing only Miami and Florida. UCF's 962 average placed it sixth overall in Conference USA and third amongst public schools, narrowly trailing Marshall and Memphis in that regards.
The program has time and again proven its commitment to academic excellence. Since joining Conference USA for the 2005-06 season, Knights volleyball players have been recognized with C-USA academic honors 37 times. In 2008, middle-blocker Jenny Heppert became the program's first ESPN The Magazine Academic All-American, after being named to the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-District III First Team two-consecutive years. Heppert also went on to earn C-USA Volleyball Scholar-Athlete of the Year honors, as well as making her second-straight appearance on the C-USA All-Academic Team.
The Knights' volleyball squad placed a program-record 10 student-athletes on the C-USA Commissioner's Academic Honor Roll, while also setting another program-record with three student-athletes receiving the C-USA Commissioner's Academic Medal for maintaining a 3.75 GPA or better.
UCF student-athletes are supported by a nine-person professional staff of advisors and program coordinators from the Office of Academic Services for Student-Athletes (ASSA). The ASSA mission is to support student-athletes' academic development while exceeding satisfactory progress toward their degrees. ASSA advisors coordinate tutoring, mentoring, study sessions, and priority class registration for all current student-athletes and assist new Knights through the recruitment process. UCF student-athletes receive specific academic and athletic information at orientation as well as study skills and time management instruction through out the year. More than 50 computers are available for student-athlete's use anytime during the academic year.
