NCAA Rule on Official Written Offers

This issue has come up a few times in individual recruits' threads. I found the link to the NCAA Bylaw that applies.

Basically, schools are allowed to give only oral offers to recruits until August 1 before their senior year, at which point schools are allowed to give offers officially in writing. Here's a link to a PDF of the bylaws.
13.9.2.2 Written Offer of Aid Before Signing Date. Before August 1 of a prospective student-athlete's senior year in high school, an institution shall not, directly or indirectly, provide a written offer of athletically related financial aid or indicate in writing to the prospective student-athlete that an athletically related grant-in-aid will be offered by the institution. On or after August 1 of a prospective student-athlete's senior year in high school, an institution may indicate in writing to a prospective student-athlete that an athletically related grant-in-aid will be offered by the institution; however, the institution may not permit the prospective student-athlete to sign a form indicating his or her acceptance of such an award before the initial signing date in that sport in the National Letter of Intent program.
