This is where you establish your academic eligibility for NCAA Divisions I & II.
NCAA database of colleges and universities sponsoring sports
This link provides access to the NCAA database of schools sponsoring various sports. It allows you to select by NCAA Division, conference and region of the country and then gives you a list of schools with links to some information about the schools. You can also find the competition schedule for a particular sport at a particular school. The database does not provide direct links to the schools's webpages or the schools sports pages. For that you should look at the
