- Purdue Northwest maintains a branch campus in Westville, where the men's and women's cross country teams are housed and where the men's and women's basketball & women's volleyball teams play a portion of their home contests; the other intercollegiate athletics teams compete on the main campus in Hammond.
- Roberts Wesleyan's campus is located in North Chili, but its mailing address is Rochester.
- Simon Fraser University to pursue U Sports membership starting in 2027.

Reclassifying to Division II
The reclassification process from one NCAA division to another requires three to five years, except for moves to Division II. Moves from Division III or another national governing body (such as the NAIA) to Division II typically requires three years, but as of 2024 can be expedited to only need two. Moves from Division I to II require two years.

Reclassifying from Division II
The following programs are reclassifying away from NCAA Division II, or have announced definitive plans to do so. Under current NCAA rules, they must have an invitation from a conference to begin the transition to Division I. During the normally four-year transition period, they are ineligible for the Division I playoffs. Since January 2025, there is an option to shorten this transition to three years.
| School name | Common name | Teams | Location | State | Type | Subdivision | Conference | Reclassified | Full DI member |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Le Moyne College | Le Moyne | Dolphins | Syracuse | NY | Private AJCU | Non-football | Northeast Conference | 2023 | 2026 |
| Mercyhurst University | Mercyhurst | Lakers | Erie | PA | Private | FCS | Northeast Conference | 2024 | 2027 |
| University of New Haven | New Haven | Chargers | New Haven | CT | Private | FCS | Northeast Conference | 2025 | 2028 |
| University of West Georgia | West Georgia | Wolves | Carrollton | GA | Public | FCS | Atlantic Sun Conference | 2024 | 2027 |
- Middle Georgia State's main campus is in Macon, where the women's cross-country and volleyball teams and men's and women's tennis teams are housed; the other intercollegiate athletics teams compete on the Cochran campus.
- Le Moyne has a Syracuse mailing address, but its campus is located almost entirely within the adjacent town of DeWitt.
Pending
These schools are actively pursuing Division II membership, but have not yet been approved by the NCAA to transition to Division II. Schools wishing to move within the NCAA to Division II must apply no later than February 1 of a given year, with the NCAA making its decision that July.
| School | Nickname | City | State/ province | Enrollment | Conference | Current affiliation | Applying |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monroe University | Mustangs | New Rochelle | NY | 7,924 | Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference | Independent (NJCAA) | 2026 |
| Shawnee State University | Bears | Portsmouth | OH | 3,641 | Mountain East Conference | RSC (NAIA) | 2026 |
| Lackawanna College | Falcons | Scranton | PA | 1,939 | Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference | EPAC (NJCAA) | TBA |

Sports not in D-II
The NCAA does not conduct separate Division II championships in the following sports:
- Men: Gymnastics, ice hockey, volleyball, water polo (note, however, that no Division II member currently sponsors men's gymnastics)
- Women: Bowling, gymnastics, ice hockey, water polo, wrestling. The first official championships in acrobatics & tumbling and stunt will be held in 2026–27, and a separate Division II bowling championship will be established in 2027–28.
- Coeducational: Fencing, rifle, skiing
Some schools have opted to compete in a sport at a higher level and are allowed to do so by the NCAA under certain circumstances. First, when the NCAA placed severe restrictions on the fielding of Division I teams by Division II institutions in 2011, it grandfathered in all then-current D-I teams at D-II schools. Apart from this, Division II members are allowed to compete for Division I championships in sports in which a Division II national championship is not contested.
In some sports, the NCAA only sponsors championships open to all member schools regardless of division, with examples including beach volleyball, fencing, rifle, and water polo. In men's and women's ice hockey and men's volleyball, the NCAA holds Division III championships, but does not hold a separate D-II championship. The NCAA officially classifies all championship events that are open to schools from more than one division as "National Collegiate", except in men's ice hockey, in which the top-level championship is styled as a Division I championship (presumably due to the past existence of a Division II championship in that sport). Division II members are allowed to compete for National Collegiate championships as well as the Division I men's ice hockey championship; in all such sports, they are allowed to operate under the same rules and scholarship restrictions that apply to full Division I members in that sport.
The Northeast-10 Conference (NE-10) sponsors men's ice hockey for its members who choose to remain in D-II, including a postseason tournament.
Several NE-10 members that sponsored women’s ice hockey also competed in the ECAC Women’s East and pursued the ECAC Open title, a women's ice hockey postseason tournament for those teams remaining in D-II but competing as independents during the regular season, but that tournament has been superseded by the New England Women's Hockey Alliance (NEWHA), which began play in 2017 as a scheduling agreement between all of the existing women's National Collegiate independents (including full D-I member Sacred Heart), organized as a full conference in 2018, and received official NCAA recognition in 2019.
Because the NE-10 is the sole Division II hockey league, its postseason champion cannot compete for the NCAA national hockey championship. The Post University men's team competes as D-II as a single-sport NE-10 member, while its women's team is a member of the NEWHA.
- Future conference affiliations indicated in this list will take effect on July 1 of the stated year. In the case of spring sports, the first year of competition will take place in the calendar year after the conference move becomes official.
