2025 Division II Survey Results
Division II has conducted several versions of a membership-wide survey as a way of obtaining input on the programs and services being provided, and on what initiatives should steer the division’s future direction. The 2013 and 2018 surveys not only helped inform the division’s strategic plans, but they also reiterated core values within the membership and, accordingly, helped shape policy and legislation to support those values in key operational areas.
To ensure the operating plan reflects current needs, Division II conducted a comprehensive membership survey in 2025. The survey was sent to all current member institutions and those in the membership process (excluding schools reclassifying to other divisions). It garnered 2,234 responses — including a 76% response rate from athletics directors — and included targeted questions for athletic director and athletic trainers. The feedback played a key role in shaping the priorities for the 2026–2032 operating plan.
The survey was the final phase of information gathering to receive membership input as the division finalized the 2026-32 operating plan.
