NFHS Stats Manual:

The only times an FTA is charged on a violation is if the shooter fails to hit the rim or commits a violation him/herself. I'm not sure where my NFHS Stats manual is offhand so I can't provide an exact citation.

NCAA Stats Manual:

"SECTION 2—FREE THROWS
Article 1. A free-throw attempt (FTA) is charged any time a player shoots a free throw and there is no violation (or technical for goaltending) during the throw, with these exceptions:
(a) An attempt as well as a free throw made is credited if the shot is made and there is a violation by the defense.
(b) An attempt is charged if the only penalized violation is for the failure of the throw to touch the rim."

-- §2 of the NCAA Stat Manual


And to answer snaqwell's question:

If a player misses a shot and is fouled, an attempt is not charged unless either (1) the shot scores or a basket is awarded, or (2) the foul is ruled to have occurred after the shot.

For an exact wording, see §1 of the NCAA Basketball Stat Manual
