College Sports Information Directors of America

As we reach the halfway point of summer, it’s time to prepare for signing up as a first-time CoSIDA member or renewing your institution’s CoSIDA membership. Beginning August 5, current and new members will be able to access the dues payment portal through CoSIDA.com. CoSIDA set a single-season membership record in 2018-19 with 3,153 members – up from the previous record of 3,071 in 2014-15.

At its June meeting, the CoSIDA Board of Directors set individual memberships at $155 for 2019-20. Group memberships will be based on the same rate of $155 with price breaks for certain numbers over three, six and 10 members.

Group and individual memberships will be available once again for full and part-time athletics communications professionals in intercollegiate athletics. Any member is eligible to purchase an individual membership. School or conference custodians can purchase a group membership for as few as one member or as many staff members as necessary.

Group memberships remain with the school should the member depart, and individual memberships travel with a member should they leave the school or conference. All group and individual members are able to nominate and vote in the CoSIDA Academic All-America® program.

For more information on group and individual memberships and pricing, click here.

In addition to the CoSIDA membership, NAIA members will again be able to purchase a separate $50 NAIA associate membership through the payment portal. These funds will be returned to the NAIA national office and used in the planning of Divisional Day during the CoSIDA 2020 Convention.

Undergraduate student memberships are available for $65 for current degree-seeking students. These memberships do not allow for nomination or voting for the Academic All-America program and are not counted as part of a school’s group membership.

Associate membership is available to anyone not affiliated with a school, conference or national governing body in college athletics. That cost is $210 for 2019-20.

A few important things to remember:

• Regular rates are in effect August 5 through October 15, 2019. A $30 late fee per membership will be added to the dues beginning October 16.
• If you are a custodian for a school or conference, you can update your roster in advance of August 5 or you will be asked to do so during the renewal/sign-up process. Custodians have the ability to update organization information and roster information throughout the year through access on their CoSIDA profiles.
• All members are encouraged to update their CoSIDA profiles before August 5. You can access your profile by logging in at the top right corner of the home page of CoSIDA.com. You can add your photograph to the Overview page and change any personal or contact information within those specific tabs. You are not able to change your affiliation, so if you need to do that, please contact Laurie Bollig at lauriebollig@cosida.com.
