Student-athletes are not required by law to sign their national letters of intent on the first day of the signing period, although many do. The following are the signing dates for student-athletes signing in 2019-2020 for 2020-21 enrollment: August 30 (postponed from July 1) for fall sports and January 2 for spring sports. In addition to these dates, some schools have additional requirements for when they must sign. These include but are not limited to the number of days prior to signing, such practices must start. Others require that all players sign by a certain date after being offered a scholarship. Still others have a policy of never accepting a fax as proof of acceptance into school; instead, students must hand write or type their letter of intent.
