Before we look at the numbers, here's what they mean:
An APR of 925 currently predicts an approximately 50 percent Graduation Success Rate (GSR) and an APR of 900 currently predicts an approximately 40 percent GSR.
Nationally, football’s average four-year APR is 944, up five points over last year. Florida State, Maryland, NC State and Virginia Tech were all below the national average. All of the ACC schools are safe, though. Teams scoring below 925 out of 1,000 can face penalties, such as scholarship losses and restrictions on practice and competition. Rates are based on the past four years of performance. FSU and Maryland are cutting it close.
Here's how the ACC schools fared in the four-year APR snapshot for football:
Duke 983
Miami 978
Boston College 967
Clemson 967
Georgia Tech 967
Wake Forest 966
North Carolina 957
Virginia 947
Virginia Tech 940
NC State 937
Maryland 929
Florida State 927
