The Capital One Academic All-America (sometimes referred to currently as the CoSIDA Academic All-America or the Capital One Academic All-America (2011–present), and previously as the ESPN The Magazine Academic All-America (2004–2010), Verizon Academic All-America (2000–04), GTE Academic All-America (1985–2000), or CoSIDA Academic All-America (1952–1985)) program is a student-athlete recognition program. It is sponsored by and presented as the Capital One Academic All-America Award (having been previously sponsored by ESPN The Magazine, Verizon and GTE) and is administered by the College Sports Information Directors of America (CoSIDA). The program selects an honorary sports team composed of the most outstanding student athletes of a specific season for positions in various sports—who in turn are given the honorific "Academic All-American". Since 1952, CoSIDA has bestowed Academic All-American recognition on male and female athletes in Divisions I, II, and III of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) as well as NAIA athletes, covering all championship sports. The phrases "Academic All-America" and "Academic All-American" are protected trademarks of CoSIDA.

Prior to 2011, there were two sets of teams chosen: One for Division I and one for all other Divisions, NAIA, two-year colleges and Canadian schools. In 2011, the program was expanded to include four sets honorary teams: One for each of NCAA Divisions I, II and III as well as one for NAIA, two-year colleges and Canadian schools. In each program, regional Academic All-District selections are made with the first-team All-District selections being eligible for Academic All-America team selections.
