Purdue University fields a women's tennis team in the Big Ten Conference (NCAA Division I). In 2024–25 the roster carried 11 players, above the median of 9, with 1 head coach and 1 assistant. Team expenses were $1,145,922, well above the median of $546k — $104,174 per roster spot, upper half of Division I women's tennis programs.

The school gave $4,937,179 in athletic aid across its women's teams, about $17,262 per roster spot.
