Inter American University of Puerto Rico-San German Athletics

Inter American University-San German competes in the NAIA, which offers a middle ground between Division I's intense scholarship athletics and Division III's purely recreational approach. The school fields 21 varsity sports with 300 total athletes, meaning about 11% of the 2,641 students participate in varsity athletics. NAIA schools can offer athletic scholarships, and Inter American provides $1,879,730 in athletic aid across its programs. The university competes in the Puerto Rico Athletic Conference alongside other local institutions. Basketball traditionally draws the strongest following on campus, reflecting Puerto Rico's passion for the sport. With only 390 students living on campus, home games create an intimate atmosphere where athletes often know many spectators personally. The bilingual nature of the university attracts some international student-athletes to supplement the predominantly Puerto Rican roster.
