Liberty University, which over the weekend won its 21st-straight dual meet, led all eligible collegiate women's teams this fall with a 3.78 GPA. The MIT men also recorded a 3.78 GPA. Archive photo via Liberty Athletics
A record 713 collegiate swimming & diving teams have been recognized as Scholar All-American programs for the fall of 2018 semester. That’s an increase of 25 teams from the fall of 2017, and continues an upward trajectory of GPAs for collegiate swimming & diving programs. While it’s not the most teams in any semester, it is the most teams to have earned the honor in a fall semester.

To qualify, a team has to earn a minimum GPA of 3.0 in any given semester and maintain a roster of 12 or more student-athletes.
In Division I, the Grand Canyon men (3.68 GPA) repeated as the top GPA in the division – a small improvement on the 3.66 that they recorded last year. In 2 years as full Division I members, Grand Canyon has made a splash both out of the pool and in it: they qualified swimmers for last March’s NCAA Championship meet in their first year of eligibility.
Overall, Division III MIT (3.78 GPA) and Division II Bridgeport (3.72 GPA) led the way for men’s teams.l
Matching Grand Canyon, another private, Christian-affiliated university, Liberty, had the highest GPA of all women’s teams: Division I or not. Liberty posted a 3.79 GPA this fall, just-barely beating out Division II Biola (3.72).
All Fall 2018 Divisional Leaders:
D1 Men – Grand Canyon – 3.68
D1 Women – Liberty – 3.78
D2 Men – Bridgeport – 3.72
D2 Women – Biola – 3.72
D3 Men – MIT – 3.78
D3 Women – Saint Catherine’s – 3.75
NAIA Men – SCAD – 3.48
NAIA Women – SCAD – 3.61
NJCAA Men – Iowa Central – 3.10
NJCAA Women – Indian River – 3.45
Every women’s Division I team that scored at last year’s NCAA Championship meet recorded at least a 3.0 GPA in the fall semester. In total, 175 out of 195 Women’s Division I swimming & diving teams achieved the mark

I admit to having a difficult time relating to these “team average” numbers. For example, Stanford is considered one of the best schools in the world, with an admission rate of approximately 5%. The Women Swim and Dive team has an average of 3.65. Doesn’t that mean that eleven of the 22 member team had gpa’s above 3.65 and eleven below? Since this is on a 4.0 scale then there must have been several team members with gpa’s near 4.0 in order to offset the “lagards” with only a 3.30 gpa. These are amazing scores, because many of the team members have very demanding technical majors, at an extremely competitive school. MIt men with a 3.71 average.… Read more »

Yes, CSCAA says that Williams’ was slightly lower, by a 3rd decimal point.

Why isn’t Amherst on the D3 list? Three of the four best, elite liberal colleges, Pomona-Pitzer, Swarthmore, and Williams, all reported GPAs for their swim teams…
Johan – this happens every year, that a team thinks they should be on the list and aren’t, and the problem is usually that either they didn’t submit paperwork or made some paperwork error. I would suggest checking with the CSCAA if you think that your team should be on the list and isn’t.
