Gymnasts are allowed to take five official visits to Division I schools and no more than one official visit per school. An official visit means the university covers all or part of the expenses related to the visit. Gymnasts often go to a football game and participate in other activities organized by the program. Official visits are allowed to begin once the gymnast begins classes her senior year of high school. Here is our list of the gymnasts who have visited their future school this fall. (Some were unofficial visits because they are not yet seniors in high school.)
All recruits will join their respective teams for the 2016-2017 school year unless otherwise noted. Michigan - Maggie O'Hara, Madison Osman, Polina Shcennikova, Lexi Funk, Lauren Farley (2017-2018), Sydney Townsend (2017-2018), Carly Gordon (2017-2018), Abby Heiskell (2018-2019), Abby Brenner (2018-2019), Natalie Wojcik (2018-2019) and Maddie Mariani (2018-2019) UCLA - Anna Glenn, Grace Glenn, Nica Hults and Felicia Hano Iowa State - Emily White, Laura Burns, Riley Walsh and Molly Russ Utah - Melissa Reinstadtler and Kim Tessen Pittsburgh - Hallie Peele, Lucy Jones and Megan Tripp

There are still 79 days until the 2016 NCAA gymnastics season officially gets underway and even longer until the NCAA national championships in Fort Worth, Texas, but that's not stopping us from making some predictions. We've brought in some of the gymternet's most well-known personalities, and over the course of the fall and season, we'll be making periodic predictions for the 2016 Super Six, starting with way too early guesses today and continuing right up until the day before the national championships are set to get underway. Let's meet our predictors... Lauren from The Gymternet, Spencer from The Balance Beam Situation and Emily and Elizabeth from NCAA Gym News.
Arizona gymnast Danielle Buchanan joined the small group of other NCAA gymnasts named to their respective schools' homecoming courts. Buchannan is a redshirt senior from Lancaster, Calif., majoring in physiology and minoring in business. She was also an All-Conference Academic Honorable Mention in 2013.
The Washington Huskies hosted their annual Meet the Gym Dawgs Saturday. The event gave a fans a chance to get to know the 2016 Washington team, get autographs and see glimpses into some of the new routines.
