I've been trying to find out which state has the most Division 1 schools for sports. I'm thinking about what colleges to apply to and it'd be great to know where I'd have the most opportunity to play at a high level. Thanks!
The state with the most Division 1 (D1) athletic programs is California. California has over 20 schools that compete at the Division 1 level and offers many opportunities for student-athletes to participate in various sports at a high level. Some well-known D1 colleges in California include the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), University of Southern California (USC), and Stanford University. As you research potential schools, consider the specific sports each institution offers, along with the school's academic programs, campus culture, and location to help you decide where you might want to apply. Good luck!
