Undergraduate Athletic Scholarships

Athletic scholarships for undergraduate student-athletes at Division I and Division II schools are partially funded through the NCAA membership revenue distribution. About $1 billion in athletic scholarships are awarded each year. Over 126,000 student-athletes receive either a partial or full athletic scholarship. However, these scholarships are awarded and administered directly by each academic institution, not the NCAA.

Division III schools offer only academic scholarships. They do not offer athletic scholarships.

For information about obtaining an undergraduate athletic scholarship, please contact the athletic department at the school(s) you are interested in attending. Links to NCAA-member schools are provided below:
