The purpose of this website is to make you aware of Boston College's Agent Program, which was developed to help you understand NCAA and Boston College rules and regulations regarding agents/financial advisors.

As an Institution, Athletics Department, and Compliance Office, our primary focus is on the student. With that being said, we have established a Professional Sports Counseling Panel that will serve in an advisory role for our student-athlete population. The panel will work in conjunction with applicable professional organizations, agents, and advisors with the intent to promote and protect our student-athlete's well-being. Therefore, we ask that you respectfully comply with our outlined rules surrounding agent/financial advisor interaction with our student-athletes and their family members.

Registering with the program is the first step and it is easy-just follow the steps listed below.

In closing, my staff looks forward to working with you. We greatly appreciate your cooperation and assistance with this program. If you have any questions, please contact me directly.

Sincerely,

Jerome P. Rodgers Associate Athletic Director for Compliance

2. If a registered agent wants specific student-athletes to receive his/her materials, the agent must provide all the materials to the Compliance Office as it should be delivered to the student-athlete. It should be in an open envelope or a copy of the materials should also be provided for Compliance to review. Compliance WILL NOT distribute if the agent does not provide it to Compliance in this fashion.

3. Agents are NOT allowed to be on a student-athlete's game day admissions pass list.

4. Student-athletes will forfeit their remaining eligibility if they enter into a verbal or written agreement with an agent.

5. Members of the Professional Sports Counseling Panel include: Jerome P. Rodgers, Warren Zola, and Bob Taggart. The Panel is available for meetings and those may be arranged through the Compliance Office. Warren Zola can be contacted by phone at (617) 552-1536 or via email at warren.zola.1@bc.edu.
