There are currently 303 American, Canadian, and Puerto Rican colleges and universities classified as Division II for NCAA competition. During the 2022–23 academic year, seven schools are in the process of reclassifying to Division II. Forty-four of the 50 U.S. states, plus the District of Columbia, the commonwealth of Puerto Rico, and the Canadian province of British Columbia are represented. Arizona, Louisiana, Maine, Nevada, Rhode Island, and Wyoming do not currently have D-II institutions.
Map of NCAA Division II institutions that sponsor men's basketball.
^Holy Names will drop their entire athletic department following the 2022-23 athletics season.
^Men's only institution in undergraduate programs, therefore it does not compete in women's sports.
^The college's athletic facilities are spread across the campus, which is split between Manchester and Hooksett.
^Despite the fact the school accepts male students, only women's sports are sponsored by the school.
^Women's only institution in undergraduate programs, therefore it does not compete in men's sports.
Reclassifying to Division II
The reclassification process from one NCAA division to another requires four years, except for moves to Division II. Moves from Division III or another national governing body (such as the NAIA) to Division II require three years, and moves from Division I to Division II require two years.
The following programs are reclassifying away from NCAA Division II, or have announced definitive plans to do so. Under current NCAA rules, they must have an invitation from a conference to begin the transition to Division I. During the four-year transition period, they are ineligible for the FCS playoffs.
^While Bellarmine remains non-football by NCAA criteria, it began playing sprint football, a weight-restricted form of American football governed outside the NCAA, in 2022.
^While Southern Indiana has an Evansville mailing address, it is actually located outside of the Evansville city limits in Perry Township, a subdivision of Vanderburgh County that includes a small part of Evansville proper.

These schools are actively pursuing Division II membership. Schools wishing to move within the NCAA to Division II must apply no later than February 1 of a given year, with the NCAA making its decision that July.
The NCAA does not conduct separate Division II championships in the following sports:
Men: Gymnastics, ice hockey, volleyball, water polo (note, however, that no Division II member currently sponsors men's gymnastics)
Women: Bowling, gymnastics, ice hockey, water polo
Coeducational: Fencing, rifle, skiing
Some schools have opted to compete in a sport at a higher level and are allowed to do so by the NCAA under certain circumstances. First, when the NCAA placed severe restrictions on the fielding of Division I teams by Division II institutions in 2011, it grandfathered in all then-current D-I teams at D-II schools. Apart from this, Division II members are allowed to compete for Division I championships in sports in which a Division II national championship is not contested.
In some sports, the NCAA only sponsors championships open to all member schools regardless of division, with examples including beach volleyball, fencing, rifle, and water polo. In men's and women's ice hockey and men's volleyball, the NCAA holds Division III championships, but does not hold a separate D-II championship. The NCAA officially classifies all championship events that are open to schools from more than one division as "National Collegiate", except in men's ice hockey, in which the top-level championship is styled as a Division I championship (presumably due to the past existence of a Division II championship in that sport). Division II members are allowed to compete for National Collegiate championships as well as the Division I men's ice hockey championship; in all such sports, they are allowed to operate under the same rules and scholarship restrictions that apply to full Division I members in that sport.
The Northeast-10 Conference (NE-10) sponsors men's ice hockey for its members who choose to remain in D-II, including a postseason tournament.
Several NE-10 members that sponsored women’s ice hockey also competed in the ECAC Women’s East and pursued the ECAC Open title, a women's ice hockey postseason tournament for those teams remaining in D-II but competing as independents during the regular season, but that tournament has been superseded by the New England Women's Hockey Alliance (NEWHA), which began play in 2017 as a scheduling agreement between all of the existing women's National Collegiate independents (including full D-I member Sacred Heart), organized as a full conference in 2018, and received official NCAA recognition in 2019.
Because the NE-10 is the sole Division II hockey league, its postseason champion cannot compete for the NCAA national hockey championship. The Post University men's team competes as D-II as a single-sport NE-10 member, while its women's team is a member of the NEWHA.
Future conference affiliations indicated in this list will take effect on July 1 of the stated year. In the case of spring sports, the first year of competition will take place in the calendar year after the conference move becomes official.
The following is a list of Division II institutions currently on probation by the NCAA in one or more sports. Probation decisions are made by the National Collegiate Athletic Association's Committee on Infractions.

NAIA Sports not in D II EditFurther information List of NCAA Divisions II and III schools competing in NCAA Division I sports The NCAA does not conduct separate Division II championships in the following sports Men Gymnastics ice hockey volleyball water polo note however that no Division II member currently sponsors men s gymnastics Women Bowling gymnastics ice hockey water polo Coeducational Fencing rifle skiingSome schools have opted to compete in a sport at a higher level and are allowed to do so by the NCAA under certain circumstances First when the NCAA placed severe restrictions on the fielding of Division I teams by Division II institutions in 2011 it grandfathered in all then current D I teams at D II schools Apart from this Division II members are allowed to compete for Division I championships in sports in which a Division II national championship is not contested In some sports the NCAA only sponsors championships open to all member schools regardless of division with examples including beach volleyball fencing rifle and water polo In men s and women s ice hockey and men s volleyball the NCAA holds Division III championships but does not hold a separate D II championship The NCAA officially classifies all championship events that are open to schools from more than one division as National Collegiate except in men s ice hockey in which the top level championship is styled as a Division I championship presumably due to the past existence of a Division II championship in that sport Division II members are allowed to compete for National Collegiate championships as well as the Division I men s ice hockey championship in all such sports they are allowed to operate under the same rules and scholarship restrictions that apply to full Division I members in that sport The Northeast 10 Conference NE 10 sponsors men s ice hockey for its members who choose to remain in D II including a postseason tournament Several NE 10 members that sponsored women s ice hockey also competed in the ECAC Women s East and pursued the ECAC Open title a women s ice hockey postseason tournament for those teams remaining in D II but competing as independents during the regular season but that tournament has been superseded by the New England Women s Hockey Alliance NEWHA which began play in 2017 as a scheduling agreement between all of the existing women s National Collegiate independents including full D I member Sacred Heart organized as a full conference in 2018 and received official NCAA recognition in 2019 Because the NE 10 is the sole Division II hockey league its postseason champion cannot compete for the NCAA national hockey championship The Post University men s team competes as D II as a single sport NE 10 member while its women s team is a member of the NEWHA Future conference affiliations indicated in this list will take effect on July 1 of the stated year In the case of spring sports the first year of competition
