The U.S. Department of Education published a memo on Thursday providing guidance regarding name, image and likeness (NIL) compensation and its compliance under Title IX law, via ESPN’s Paula Lavigne and Dan Murphy.

“When a school provides athletic financial assistance in forms other than scholarships or grants, including compensation for the use of a student-athlete’s NIL, such assistance also must be made proportionately available to male and female athletes,” the memo said, via Lavigne and Murphy.

Title IX is a federal law that prohibits discrimination in education programs based on sex.
