Question
I have not played college football yet but have been enrolled in a junior college for one semester and a division 3 college for 2 semesters. I am looking to transfer to a d1 college to walk on..if i wasnt a qualifier through the clearing house do i face any elgibility pennalties when i get there or now that I have gone to school for 3 semesters I am ok?

Answer
Lance, hello!

I'm not certain so the NCAA (through your D-1 college)  will verfiy.  It sounds as if you would have 4 years of eligibility left, providing you're still enrolled as a student (especially in the final year).

They will give you the exact answer.  I wish you the very best.  Please let me know when you make the tryouts so I can follow your career!  What an incredible dream.  Don't give up on it!
