NCAA Student Athlete Well-Being Study (2021)

National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) researchers collaborated with the NCAA Sport Science Institute and the NCAA’s Division I, II and III Student Athlete Advisory Committees to design and distribute a survey in the Fall of 2021. The survey examined the experiences and well-being of 9,808 student athletes and is a follow-up to two NCAA student athlete well-being surveys conducted during the Spring and Fall of 2020 respectively. All three surveys were designed to assess the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the physical and mental well-being of student athletes and would come to generate over 70,000 student athlete responses combined.
