Championship
The NCAA Division III Women's Rowing Championships comprise 126 total competitors (148 including spares) and one event, varsity and second varsity eights together. Each race is 2,000 meters long. Six teams are selected, each of which is required to field two eights. In addition, as of 2005 two "at-large" boats are selected to enable representation by teams that have a single fast crew but not the depth for two competitive boats. The following criteria are used in selecting teams and individual boats:

Eligibility and availability of student-athletes.
Winning percentage, head-to-head results, results against common opponents.
Strength of schedule as demonstrated by results against regionally ranked teams.
Results against teams already in the championship
