NAIA VS NCAA

The NAIA and NCAA are two different organizations that compete in the same sports, but they have different rules, regulations, and standards.

NAIA: The NAIA is an organization that operates at the under-the-radar level of competition. This means that you probably won’t hear about them unless you’re a fan of a particular school or program. The NAIA has over 1,000 member institutions in 23 countries around the world. Most of their sports are football-based and many of their teams are relatively small, with an enrollment of between 2,000 and 4,500 students.

NCAA: The NCAA is the largest intercollegiate athletic organization in the United States. It comprises more than 1,400 member institutions and has over 300 athletic programs across all levels of competition from Division I (with football) through Division III (without football).

The big difference between NAIA and NCAA comes down to rules: In general, NAIA rules are less restrictive than NCAA rules. For example, most NAIA schools will allow attendance at home games for any reason even if your child has just come back from vacation or is recovering from injury and they will give credit toward graduation for any class taken.
