Hey, I'm in the process of researching colleges, and I came across Christopher Newport University (CNU). Does anyone know if it's a D1 school in terms of athletics?
Christopher Newport University (CNU) is not a Division I school. Rather, CNU competes in Division III. Division III athletics emphasizes providing a well-rounded collegiate experience, with athletics playing a more balanced role alongside academics. DIII schools do not offer athletic scholarships, but you can still receive merit-based and need-based financial aid.
If you're interested in participating in athletics at CNU, keep in mind that the level of competition and commitment will be different from a D1 school, but your athletic pursuits can still be a valuable part of your overall college experience. Best of luck with your future endeavors!
