The 2016-17 Winter SEC Academic Honor Roll is based on grades from the 2016 Spring, Summer and Fall terms.

(4) Prior to being nominated, a student-athlete must have successfully completed 24 semester or 36 quarter hours of non-remedial academic credit toward a baccalaureate degree at the nominating institution.
