Hi there, I'm trying to compile a list of D2 colleges, but I keep getting conflicting or incomplete information. Is there an official or widely recognized list of all Division Two colleges in the US?
Yes, there is an official list of NCAA Division II schools provided directly by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA). This is the most definitive and reliable source for this information.
The NCAA website has a directory tool where you can filter for schools by division, sport, and more. The direct link can't be provided here, but I can tell you how to navigate to it.
1. Visit the NCAA's main website.
2. Hover over the "About" section.
3. Click on "Who We Are".
4. Scroll a bit and click on "Our Members".
5. Click on "Member Schools".
6. A new page will pop up with Division I schools listed. There's a drop-down menu on the top right corner of the page where you can select Division II.
This will show you a complete, constantly updated, and official list of Division II institutions in the United States. Remember that some schools may change divisions over time, so this list can change as well.
