List of NCAA Division 1 Schools

There are 347 DI Schools across 49 different states. D1 colleges range from smaller private schools to the largest universities in the US. The scholarship opportunities vary depending on the sport and the school. If you play football, men’s or women’s basketball or women’s volleyball, tennis or gymnastics all of these scholarships are full-rides. The rest of the sports are generally partial scholarships, but you can still get a full scholarship if the fit is right.

How Competitive Are Division I Colleges

DI universities are where the best high school and prep athletes from around the world go to play and compete. NCAA DI programs generate millions of dollars in revenue each year and the pressure to perform and win, impacts all of the decisions made regarding coaches, athletes and scholarships. Many athletes and families feel that D1 programs are run too much like a business and choose to play at a division level where expectations on academics and athletics are more balanced.

Creating Your List of D1 Schools

You might have a list of a couple D1 Colleges in mind where you would like to go, but if you are just starting out you need to begin your search with more schools. When beginning your search for Universities, you want to start with 10-20 DI schools. Because the recruiting process is so competitive at this level, chances are the majority of schools you contact will not be the right fit. One of the best ways to find more schools to add to your list is look within the same conference or within the same region as schools you are already considering.
