22 NCAA Division I women's tennis programs in Texas: rosters of 8 to 9, all with athletic aid, $13,387 a player in spending
Every NCAA Division I women's tennis program in Texas, in one list, not only the programs you have already heard of. The numbers beside each one come from the federal Equity in Athletics (EADA) survey and the College Scorecard: roster size, whether the school awards athletic aid, net price and admission rate. Each program links to its own page with the coaches, roster, spending and academics behind it.
For parents: this is the list to start from. Most athletes who could play in college are never seen because nobody knew the program existed. Seeing every option in a state, with real numbers beside each one, turns “where could my athlete play?” into a short list you can actually work.
Rosters run close together across Texas: half of these 22 programs carry 8 or 9 players, against an NCAA Division I median of 9. Every one of them is at a school that reported athletic aid for the team's gender, about $19,922 per athlete at the median across all sports. Day-to-day operating spending on the team ran $13,387 per player at the median in 2025, 31% above the NCAA Division I median of $10,243. The spread is wide: the middle half of programs spent from $10,114 to $23,793 per player.

Frequently asked
How many NCAA Division I women's tennis programs are there in Texas?
22, as of the most recent EADA survey. Level Field Combine tracks every NCAA, NAIA and NJCAA tennis program with a public page.
How many players does an NCAA Division I women's tennis program in Texas carry?
8.5 at the midpoint; half the programs carry between 8 and 9. The NCAA Division I median nationally is 9. Roster size shapes playing time: fewer players means a recruit is closer to the lineup, more means deeper competition for spots.
Which NCAA Division I women's tennis programs in Texas give athletic aid?
All 22 are at schools that reported athletically related aid for the team's gender. Among those that do, aid works out to about $19,922 per athlete at the median. EADA reports aid by gender for the whole athletic department, not per team, so what a tennis award covers is a question for the coach. Programs at this level may award athletic scholarships, usually as partial awards spread across the roster in tennis.
How much do NCAA Division I women's tennis programs in Texas spend per player?
$13,387 per player at the median in 2025, counting day-to-day operating costs such as travel, uniforms, equipment and game-day expenses (not coaching salaries or aid). That is 31% above the NCAA Division I median of $10,243. The middle half of programs ran from $10,114 to $23,793.
