The 2024 Academic All-District teams, selected by College Sports Communicators, recognize the nation's top student-athletes for their combined performances on the field and in the classroom. A select group of student-atheltes advance to the CSC Academic All-America ballot where CSC members vote on Academic All-America teams. First-, second- and third-team Academic All-America honorees will be announced in early December.
 
To be eligible for Academic All-District consideration, a student-athlete must be at least a sophomore and maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.50. Athletically, student-athletes must either appear in 90 percent of their team's games or start 66 percent of them.
