National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA)

The NJCAA has over 500 two-year programs across the United States. The level of sport can still be very high but academics are typically easier than that of at a four year school (NCAA or NAIA). The NJCAA is also divided into divisions based on school size as the NCAA is.

As NJCAA are only two-year programs, these schools are a stepping stone for transferring elsewhere to complete your degree. Rosters sizes in the NJCAA are considerably larger as there are no regulations for team size, and will provide an excellent transition for anyone who wants to dip their toes into collegiate and university athletics without committing to a university right away.
