Frequently asked questions

Is West Florida NCAA Division I?

Yes. The University of West Florida competes in NCAA Division I in the ASUN, after moving up from NCAA Division II. During the three-year NCAA reclassification its teams are not eligible for NCAA postseason tournaments; full NCAA postseason eligibility begins in 2029.

Does West Florida offer tennis scholarships?

NCAA Division I rules allow athletic scholarships for tennis. Whether West Florida offers you one, and how much, depends on the player and the university. Since July 1, 2025, Division I rules no longer have sport-specific scholarship limits. Schools in the defendant conferences and schools that opt in work under roster limits instead, and may offer scholarships (full or partial) to any or all athletes on the roster. (Source: NCAA.org – DI Board of Directors formally adopts changes to roster limits (June 23, 2025)) Division I schools that did not opt in are not bound by the settlement roster limits, and the NCAA Manual no longer sets their scholarship limits. However, if they give more aid than their sport's 2024-25 limit (men's tennis 4.5 equivalencies; women's tennis the value of 8 full scholarships), they become subject to the settlement, including roster limits. The old head-count rule no longer applies. (Source: Q&A: Implementation of the House Settlement (NCAA and defendant conferences; updated February 11, 2026))
