There are roughly 300 members throughout the US, Canada and the Bahamas. The typical member is between 3000-6000 students. The association has experienced growth in recent years due to growing enrollments at private institutions causing the addition and development of intercollegiate athletic programs.

The association blends the positive characteristics of both NCAA DIII and DII. Like NCAA DII, members award scholarships. And like NCAA DIII the members are smaller, student focused and have superior academic achievement.

But unlike the NCAA, the NAIA is focused on Character development. Which is headlined by the Champions of Character initiative started in the early 2000s.
