Individuals qualify for the Scholar All-America honor by attaining two goals: they must post an NCAA qualifying time in their event (automatic or provisional) and they must reach a GPA of 3.50 or higher. That GPA qualification can either be for the semester of the award or a cumulative GPA.

The four women named as Scholar All-Americans are Val Atwood (Rockford, Ill.), Cailee Caldwell (Eagle River, Alaska), Olivia Ehmann (Ambler, Penn.), and Dayna Jacob (Cascade, Trindad). Atwood, Caldwell, and Jacob are sophomores. Ehmann is a freshman. Atwood transferred to the University from Gettysburg College.
