President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order on April 3, 2026, directing federal agencies to enforce college‑sports rules on transferring, eligibility, and pay‑for‑play, and to assess whether violations affect a university’s eligibility for federal grants and contracts. The order also calls for the governing bodies of collegiate athletics to revise eligibility limits, establish clear transfer regulations, provide medical care for student‑athletes, and enforce revenue sharing that supports women’s and Olympic sports. It prohibits improper financial arrangements, such as pay‑for‑play agreements facilitated by collectives, and seeks to protect student‑athletes from unscrupulous agents. The General Services Administration, Department of Education, FTC, and Attorney General are instructed to increase data collection and take enforcement actions, while Congress is urged to pass related legislation.
