Kutztown University athletics recognizes 237 student-athletes on the 2024-25 Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference's scholar-athlete list. The 237 Golden Bears account for 54% of the department. This year also marks the sixth year in a row that the Golden Bears have eclipsed the 200 honoree mark.
In order to be eligible for PSAC Scholar-Athlete honors, student-athletes must maintain a cumulative GPA of at least 3.25. The conference instituted a new policy last year, honoring athletes meeting the academic requirement in only PSAC sponsored sports. This change directly affected Kutztown's acrobatics & tumbling and women's bowling teams, which do not compete under the PSAC banner. Acrobatics & tumbling is part of the National Collegiate Acrobatics & Tumbling Association (NCATA) and does not have a conference affiliation, while women's bowling is an associate member of the East Coast Conference (ECC). Bowlers are eligible to be named to the ECC Commissioner's Honor Roll, which is usually released in late July.
The 2024-25 PSAC Scholar-Athlete total of 3,922 (54% of the entire PSAC student-athlete population) marks the 10th consecutive year the PSAC has awarded at least 40% of its student-athlete population with "Scholar-Athlete" status. 11 institutions increased their total number of PSAC Scholar-Athletes in 2024-25 compared to the previous year.
