What are the D2 colleges in the US?

Hi, guys! I'm doing a bit of college research and I'd like to explore my options with D2 schools. Can someone please provide a list of D2 colleges in the US? Thank you!

Hello! Good to hear you're exploring your options with Division II colleges. While it's not possible to list all D2 colleges in the US in a single response (there are over 300 of them!), I can provide you with some general information and point you in the right direction to conduct further research.

Division II colleges are part of the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and compete in a wide range of sports. These schools tend to be smaller in size and place a greater emphasis on the balance between academics and athletics compared to some larger universities.

D2 schools are spread across many conferences in different regions of the US. Some of the conferences include:

1. Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference (CACC)

2. Central Intercollegiate Athletic Association (CIAA)

3. Conference Carolinas (CC)

4. Great American Conference (GAC)

5. Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC)

6. Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC)

7. Great Midwest Athletic Conference (G-MAC)

8. Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC)

9. Gulf South Conference (GSC)

10. Lone Star Conference (LSC)

11. Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association (MIAA)

12. Mountain East Conference (MEC)

13. Northeast-10 Conference (NE10)

14. Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference (NSIC)

15. Pacific West Conference (PacWest)

16. Peach Belt Conference (PBC)

17. Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC)

18. Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC)

19. South Atlantic Conference (SAC)

20. Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SIAC)

21. Sunshine State Conference (SSC)

With so many D2 schools, make sure to explore them based on your academic interests, location preference, and athletic opportunities. You can visit the following website: ncaa.com/schools to find a full list of D2 colleges by searching the NCAA's database with "Division II" selected under the "Division" filter. Furthermore, you can refine your search with additional filters such as sports, states, or conferences.

Keep in mind that it's essential to research additional aspects of your college choices, such as academic programs, campus culture, class sizes, and the overall college experience. Good luck with your research!
