5-15-4.Financial Penalty. Pursuant to Bylaws 19.9.5 and 19.9.5.2, consistent with Figure 19-1, absent extenuating circumstances under Bylaw 19.9.6 and after determining the appropriate classification based on any aggravating and mitigating factors,
hearing panels shall prescribe financial penalties as a core penalty when a panel concludes that an institution or involved individual associated with a sport program committed one or more Level I or Level II violations. If those financial penalties include an additional percentage of the sport program's budget, that percentage will be applied to the average of the sport program's previous three total budgets. Based on the financial penalty prescribed, an institution shall be required to calculate and identify its total financial penalty in its preliminary compliance report. The OCOI will provide that total to the NCAA accounting office, which will provide the institution with an invoice. Institutions shall be required to pay the invoice within 30 days of receipt of the invoice. COI practice does not permit an institution to retain any portion of its financial penalty in lieu of paying the invoice.
