What is NIL?
Per the interim NIL Policy that has been adopted on June 30, 2021, the NCAA has now allowed student-athletes to benefit and earn compensation from the use of their name, image, and likeness (NIL). The ODU Department of Athletics is supportive of student-athletes who wish to engage in NIL activities in accordance with applicable NCAA and/or state or federal laws
ODU NIL Guidelines serve as a guide for student-athletes about the certain types of activities that are allowed and not allowed in terms of NIL.
