These 1,006 schools are divided into three categories and must follow
rules specific to their division. Here are some of the factors that the
NCAA uses to delineate between the three divisions.Division I - These
schools must sponsor at least seven sports each for men and women, or
six for men and eight for women, with two team sports for each gender.
Men’s and women’s basketball teams must play all but two of their games
against Division I teams, and men must play a third of their contests in
their designated home arena. Schools have a minimum and maximum number
of scholarships they can award. Of the three divisions, Division I is
the most prominent and receives the most publicity.
Division II - These schools must sponsor at least four sports each for
men and women, with two team sports for each gender. Men and women’s
basketball teams must play at least half of their games against Division
I or Division II schools. There are no minimum home game requirements
for this division.
Division III - These schools must sponsor at least five sports each for
men and women, with two team sports for each gender. Unlike Divisions I
and II, Division III schools do not offer athletic scholarships.
One of the NCAA’s duties is to organize the annual basketball tournament
for men’s and women’s college basketball of each division. Each
tournament is based on a single-elimination format.
