* These are estimates of the maximum amount of Revenue sharing per school allowed under the proposed NCAA revenue sharing model scheduled to become effective for the 2025-26 fiscal year. Participation is optional, schools can elect not to share revenues with athletes or share revenues at an amount less than 22%. The annual cap of $ 21 million is the current estimate for the 2025-26 fiscal year. This cap is scheduled to increase to $ 33 million annually per school over the next ten years based on the proposed revenue sharing model. Revenue sharing is in addition to any NIL compensation and athletic scholarships received by athletes.
** Data is currently available only for public colleges & universities, detailed data is not currently available for private colleges & universities. Army & Navy are American Athletic conference schools for football only, they are both members of the Patriot Conference for all other sports. The three NCAA I service academies (Army, Navy & Air Force) are not expected to participate in the NCAA revenue sharing model.
Computed revenue includes event tickets and admission fees, TV, media and royalty rights, bowl game and event compensation and all related revenues. Revenue does not include funds from school support, student fees or unrecompensed (i.e. charitable) contributions to the athletic department from alumni and boosters.
