Club teams are USA Cycling Collegiate member clubs which have submitted the appropriate application to USA Cycling and are in good standing with USA Cycling and their individual school. Club teams are typically student led and any funds for the program that come from the school typically are from university programs budgets and not athletics.
Varsity teams are distinguished largely by the amount of funding they get from both their school and outside sponsors. Additionally, they must have a USA Cycling licensed coach. In order to be recognized as a varsity program by USA Cycling, teams have to meet three of the four following criteria:
1. Does your school recognize you as a varsity program?
2. Does your team give out at athlete scholarships?
3. Does your team pay entry for most collegiate races during the year?
4. Did your team attend 2 USAC Collegiate National Championship events the previous year?
