Division I
The NCAA Division I Women's Rowing Championships have 312 competitors (344 including spares) and three events (I Eights, II Eights, Fours). Twelve teams are selected, each of which is required to field a team of two eights and one four. In previous years an additional, four at-large I Eights are selected. As of 2009 all bids must be full teams. Teams are awarded points by their final placing in each event. The NCAA Champion is determined by the team which accumulates the most points. When teams are tied for points after the three events, the NCAA champion is determined by the team with the higher placing in the I Eight event.
Participants in the championships are selected by the NCAA Division I Women’s Rowing Committee. One team from each region is selected. The following criteria are used in selecting teams and individual boats:
- Regional championship results.
- Regional ranking.
- Late season performance.
- Head-to-head results.
- Results versus team already selected.
- Results versus common opponents.
- Results versus regionally ranked team.

Famous quotes containing the word division:
“Don’t order any black things. Rejoice in his memory; and be radiant: leave grief to the children. Wear violet and purple.... Be patient with the poor people who will snivel: they don’t know; and they think they will live for ever, which makes death a division instead of a bond.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Major [William] McKinley visited me. He is on a stumping tour.... I criticized the bloody-shirt course of the canvass. It seems to me to be bad “politics,” and of no use.... It is a stale issue. An increasing number of people are interested in good relations with the South.... Two ways are open to succeed in the South: 1. A division of the white voters. 2. Education of the ignorant. Bloody-shirt utterances prevent division.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
