NCAA Division II

What D2 programs publish

Each cell gives the fastest and slowest line among the 2 D2 programs in our dataset, with the median once more than two publish one. The recruit / scholarship column uses a program's recruitment or scholarship standard, or its target mark when that's the only recruiting line it prints. The walk-on / roster column uses its walk-on, try-out or roster standard.

We haven't found any NAIA program that posts current recruiting standards on its own athletics site, so this section shows NCSA's ranges only. Ask the coaches at the programs you're considering for their marks.
