Collegiate Recruiting Rules by Division...


NCAA Division 1 wrestling recruiting rules NCAA Division 1 wrestling programs have the most restrictive set of rules:
Any time: College coaches can send recruits general materials, such as questionnaires, camp information, non-athletic information about the school and materials published by the NCAA.
June 15 after sophomore year: Student-athletes can receive personal contact and recruiting materials. Coaches can call athletes, send text messages, direct messages and emails, as well as make verbal offers.
August 1 before junior year: Recruits can begin taking unofficial visits and official visits to schools. Student-athletes can take one official visit per school and are limited to five total official visits. For example, a wrestling recruit might take three official visits in the fall of junior year, and then two in the spring. Additionally, wrestling coaches can also conduct off-campus contact with recruits

NCAA Division 2 wrestling recruiting rules
NCAA Division 2 recruiting rules are slightly more lenient than Division 1, especially when it comes to visits:
Any time: Like Division 1, coaches can send recruits general materials at any point, including questionnaires, camp brochures, NCAA materials and non-athletic information about the school. Student-athletes can go on an unofficial visit, and they aren’t restricted in the number of unofficial visits they take.
June 15 after sophomore year: College coaches can call, text, email, direct message and conduct off-campus contact with an athlete and/or their family. Student-athletes can also begin taking official visits at this time. They are allowed one visit per college and are granted unlimited total visits to Division 2 schools.

NCAA Division 3 wrestling recruiting rules
NCAA Division 3 doesn’t have limits on when coaches can contact recruits. There are only restrictions in place around off-campus contact and official visits. Wrestling student-athletes will find that most Division 3 coaches recruit during junior and senior year.
Any time: Student-athletes can receive printed materials—recruiting or generic. Coaches can call, email, text and send direct messages to student-athletes. Recruits can go on an unofficial visit at any point during high school and aren’t restricted in the number of unofficial visits they take.
After sophomore year: Coaches can contact student-athletes off campus.
January 1 of junior year: Student-athletes can start taking official visits. They’re allowed one visit per college and can take as many official visits to Division 3 programs as they like. Many wrestling recruits visit Division 3 schools in late winter and spring of their junior year.
