Notes[]
- ^ The NCAA formally brands championships open to teams from more than one division as "National Collegiate" championships. Men's hockey is an exception to this rule because the NCAA had once sponsored a separate Division II championship in that sport.
- ^ While Arizona State remains independent, it played the 2020–21 season in a scheduling alliance with the Big Ten Conference.[1]
- ^ Although LIU played its first season of men's hockey in 2020–21 as an independent, it was in a scheduling alliance with Atlantic Hockey.[2]
- ^ Merrimack began a transition from NCAA Division II to Division I in 2019. Because the NCAA does not sponsor a D-II ice hockey championship, Merrimack remains eligible for Division I postseason competition in that sport.
- ^ The NCAA announced in July 2020 that St. Thomas could directly transition from Division III to Division I on a four-year schedule, normally used for all-sports moves from D-II to D-I.[5] Because the NCAA does not have a Division II championship in men's or women's ice hockey, postseason eligibility for St. Thomas hockey will not occur until 2025–26 (transitions from D-III to D-II require three years instead of four).
- ^A The NCAA began sponsoring ice hockey in the 1947–48 season. All teams before 1956, and those classified in the 'University Division' from 1956–1972 are retroactively considered Division I.
- ^B Bemidji State also competed in Division I from 1947–1950 and 1959–1967.
- ^C Bemidji State won Division II National Championships in 1984, 1993, 1994, 1995, and 1997, and a Division III Championship in 1986.
- ^D UMass also competed in Division I from 1947–1961.
- ^E UMass Lowell won Division II National Championships in 1979, 1981, and 1982.
- ^F Merrimack won a Division II National Championship in 1978.
- ^G Minnesota State won a Division II National Championship in 1980.
- ^H RIT won a Division II National Championship in 1983 and a Division III Championship in 1985.
- ^I Union also competed in Division I from 1947–1949.

- ^ Alaska Anchorage last played hockey in the 2019–20 season. UAA intended to play in 2020–21, but canceled its season due to COVID-19 issues, and dropped the sport due to financial fallout from the pandemic. A subsequent fundraising drive was successful enough to lead UAA to reinstate hockey, with plans to resume play in 2022–23.[6]
- ^ Lindenwood announced in February 2021 its transfer of the Lions men's hockey team from the American Collegiate Hockey Association's Central States Collegiate Hockey League after the 2021–22 season.[7]
- ^ Augustana released a statement in June 2021 in which the school announced its intention to elevate all athletic programs to Division-I status. Additionally, the school will add a men's ice hockey program, beginning play in the 2023–24 season.[8]
- ^ Robert Morris dropped both men's and women's ice hockey after the 2020–21 season due to financial issues brought on by COVID-19. A subsequent fundraising drive was successful enough that RMU announced both teams would be reinstated in the 2023–24 season.[9]

Notes[]
- ^ The NCAA began sponsoring women's hockey in the 2000–01 season.
- ^ Minnesota won the American Women's College Hockey Alliance championship in 2000.
- ^ The NCAA announced in July 2020 that St. Thomas could directly transition from Division III to Division I on a four-year schedule, normally used for all-sports moves from D-II to D-I. Because the NCAA does not have a Division II championship in men's or women's ice hockey, postseason eligibility for St. Thomas hockey will not occur until 2025–26.[5]
