Hello, fellow college applicants! I'm currently on the lookout for Division 2 schools in Oregon. If anyone has any recommendations for colleges to explore, I'd really appreciate it!
Hi there! It's great that you're looking into D2 schools in Oregon. While the state is more well-known for its larger Division 1 institutions like the University of Oregon and Oregon State University, there are a few great Division 2 schools you could consider:
1. Western Oregon University (WOU): Located in Monmouth, WOU is a public university with a variety of undergraduate programs and a strong commitment to student success. Its athletics program is part of the Great Northwest Athletic Conference (GNAC) and offers a wide range of sports for both men and women.
2. Concordia University Portland (CU-P): While this private university's physical campus has unfortunately closed, its educational programs are still available online, and you may be able to join their athletic teams as a part of their Club Sports affiliation. However, this is something you would need to verify with their athletics department individually.
As you're researching these schools, I'd recommend looking into their academic programs, campus life, and financial aid options, in addition to how their athletics program fits with your interests. Don't hesitate to also check out any virtual information sessions or campus tours, as they can give you a better idea of whether these universities are the right fit for you.
Good luck on your college search!
