The full guide: eligibility, what to send, and how the roster cap changes the math.
Division by division
| Division | Programs | Spots | Median budget | Per player |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Division I | 232 | 2,279 | $452k | $48k |

Division I roster cap 10 from 2025-26: last season 78 programs carried more, 44 were exactly at it and 107 had room. Players already on a roster may stay, so the squeeze lands on the next classes. How the caps work.
Odds: 4.4% of high-school players hold an NCAA roster spot (1 in 22); 1 in 70 (1.4%) in Division I. Transfers and international players hold some of those spots. The honest version · every sport.
