As a NCAA member institution, SUNY Polytechnic Institute is required to annually gather information regarding the prior misconduct of any current/returning, prospective, or transfer student, including a graduate student, who seeks to participate in intercollegiate athletics.

- Sexual Violence: A term used to include both forcible and nonforcible sex offenses.
- Other Acts of Violence: Crimes and/or conduct including murder, manslaughter, aggravated assault or any assault that employs the use of a deadly weapon or causes serious bodily injury.
