Hey everyone, I'm trying to narrow down my college list and I'm especially interested in Division I schools for athletics. Is there a resource or list that shows D1 schools sorted by state? Thanks in advance!
Hello! To find a list of Division I schools sorted by state, you can visit the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) website. Specifically, the NCAA divides schools into three divisions, with Division I being the one you're interested in.
Here's a quick way to find D1 schools by state:
1. Go to the NCAA website (www.ncaa.org)
2. Hover over the "DIVISION I" tab at the top of the page and click on "Our Members" from the dropdown menu
3. You'll see an interactive map with all the current Division I schools. Alternatively, you can click on "Division I Member Schools" to see a list with their full names, states, and conferences
5. To sort the list by state, click on the column header called "State." This will organize the list of schools in alphabetical order by state
Keep in mind that this list indicates the schools participating in Division I athletics in general, but sports programs can vary by school. Be sure to research the specific athletic program you're interested in at each university to ensure they meet your expectations. Best of luck in your college search and athletic pursuits!
