* Women's NCAA Division I gymnastics is a head-count sport for purposes of awarding athletic scholarships and is an equivalency sport for all other divisions, so partial scholarships can be awarded to meet the limit per school. For example, an NCAA Division II school can award 12 female gymnasts each a 1/2 scholarship and still meet the limit of six per school.

** Average Athletic Scholarship is the average award per athlete for ALL varsity sports sponsored by the specific school. Some athletes receive full awards, some receive partial, and many receive none. Additionally, some sports within a school may be fully funded, some partially, and some sports provide no athletic scholarships. Private schools generally have higher tuition than public schools and the average award will reflect this.

Averages

2016 athletic scholarship averages for NCAA Division 1 gymnastics teams:

Women's NCAA I Gymnastic Teams	Average	Low	High
# of Scholarships Awarded	14	12	16
Average Scholarship per team	$40,172	$23,482	$63,337

Men's NCAA I Gymnastic Teams	Average	Low	High
# of Scholarships Awarded	16	14	19
Average Scholarship per team	$18,190	$12,882	$31,573

Note: Number of scholarships awarded is per team, so for four-year schools typically only 25 percent or so will be available for the incoming (i.e. freshman) class. Data includes responding schools only, programs that do not award athletic scholarships (Ivy League, etc.) are not included in these results.
