American International College Athletics

American International College competes in NCAA Division II, which means athletic scholarships are available but the sports culture is more balanced than Division I powerhouses. With 624 total athletes out of 1,097 students, an impressive 57% of the student body participates in varsity sports. The Yellow Jackets field 19 varsity teams and compete in the Northeast 10 Conference against regional rivals. The school awards $7,078,979 in athletic scholarships annually, helping recruit talented student-athletes. AIC has built a strong reputation in hockey, with their men's team winning multiple national championships and producing NHL players. The athletic program emphasizes both competitive excellence and academic achievement, fitting the Division II model of well-rounded student-athletes who take their studies seriously while still competing at a high level.
