DescriptionThis report provides summary information concerning revenues and expenses of NCAA Division III athletics programs for the fiscal years 2011 through 2015. It is the result of data collected in the fall of each of those years. Although similar studies have been conducted for the NCAA since 1969, significant changes in data collection and reporting render previous reports non-comparable to those of 2004 and beyond.
Objectives. The primary objective of the 2015 edition of the report is to update the information provided in previous reports concerning financial aspects of intercollegiate athletics programs. A second objective is to provide an analysis of expense trends of NCAA Division III athletics programs and its two defined subgroups – schools with football and those without. A third objective is to provide data relevant to gender issues.
