Post University Athletics

Post University competes in NCAA Division II, which offers athletic scholarships while maintaining a balance between academics and sports without the intensity of Division I programs. The Eagles field 16 varsity sports and distribute $3,568,772 in athletic scholarships across their teams. With 395 total athletes among 18,975 students, just 2.1% of the student body participates in varsity athletics. Post competes in the Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference against regional rivals. The university has built a respectable Division II program that attracts student-athletes seeking scholarship opportunities without the overwhelming time commitments of major college sports. The relatively small athletic participation rate reflects the school's broader focus on career-oriented education rather than sports culture. Post's athletic programs serve as an additional pathway for students to finance their education through scholarships.
