In agreement with the Administration, the Board of Trustees voted by unanimous consent on Thursday, May 25, 2023, to not pursue participation in NCAA Division III at this time.
 
Bob Jones University remains, however, very excited to continue our intercollegiate competition in the NCCAA where we have been very successful. We have won 23 national championships in several sports, several coaches have been named regional or national coach of the year, we have had nearly 200 scholar-athletes and nearly one hundred athletes named All American, and for six straight years we have been recognized with the Presidential Award of Excellence.

We are grateful to Athletic Director, Dr. Neal Ring, and the Bruins staff as well as to the vice president for NCAA Division III and the membership committee for the time and energy they have invested in our application.
