If you are a college transfer from a NCAA Division I or NCAA Division II School...

If you are a transfer from a NCAA Division I or Division II school, your current institution must provide a "Permission To Contact" letter. This letter must be provided by your current institution and faxed to the Pacific Athletics Department, Attention: Compliance Officer, at 503-352-2209. If a letter is not received, or if your current school does not grant permission, we are unable to talk with you.

If you are a college transfer from a NCAA Division III school…

Transfers from other NCAA Division III schools may issue their own release ("self-release") to allow Pacific to make contact about a potential transfer. You must fax this letter to the Pacific Athletics Department, Attention: Compliance Officer, at 503-352-2209.
