He Is on scholarship and can practice with the team.
Sure? Sorry if I misspoke, but I got that from this NCAA page-
http://www.ncaa.org/student-athletes/current/transfer-terms
Nonqualifier (Division I or II): A student-athlete planning to attend a Division I or II school who has not met academic requirements to be a Division I or II qualifier. If you are a nonqualifier, you may not practice, compete or receive an athletics scholarship from a Division I or II school during your first year of full-time enrollment.
Maybe there are exceptions?
