Top College Athletic Programs
NCSA Power Rankings analyzed over 1,000 college athletic programs across five division levels (D1-FBS, D1-FBS, D2, D3 and NAIA) to develop a list of the Top 100 College Athletic Programs for Student-Athletes.
NCSA Power Rankings are based on proprietary analysis of NCSA Favorites data obtained from the college search activity of the over 2 million student-athletes on the NCSA recruiting network, general academic rankings by U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges, IPEDS graduation rates and IPEDS average cost after aid.
