Under most definitions that have been used in the past, even receiving any prize money or a scholarship would have made you a professional athlete.

Apr 1, 2014 at 10:33 comment added o0'. I meant the opposite: I would have expected professional athletes to be barred from partecipating in the Universiades, and I was surprised it isn't so.
