Top NAIA Schools

NCSA Power Rankings analyzed 240 NAIA college athletic programs to develop a list of the Best NAIA Colleges for Student-Athletes.

NCSA Power Rankings are based on proprietary analysis of “NCSA Favorites” data obtained from the college search activity of the millions of student-athletes on the NCSA recruiting network, U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges general academic rankings, and the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard graduation rates and average cost after aid.
