Does it field a women’s basketball team?
Yes. Christian Brothers University reported 20 women’s basketball participants in the Equity in Athletics return it filed for 2025-26. That is the institution’s own count of the squad, not a roster page Athlavia has read, and it is the figure the United States Department of Education publishes.
It competes in NCAA Division II and in the Gulf South Conference. It is one of 10 NCAA DII women's basketball programmes in Tennessee, out of 46 programmes there in total.
The athletics department’s own site is where the current roster and coaching staff are published.
Read from the department’s own published staff directory, checked against it again on a schedule, and shown with the page and date they came from. Athlavia drafts the approach for you and you send it yourself, from your own address.
Can it award a basketball scholarship?
NCAA Division II rules permit athletically-related student aid. Division II is an equivalency division, so the permitted aid can be divided across a squad and a partial award is ordinary rather than a disappointment.
Christian Brothers University reported athletically-related student aid awarded to women in its most recent federal return. The amount is the total across every women’s sport at the institution — basketball, and also volleyball, soccer, track, swimming and the rest. It is not a basketball budget, and it is not what one player receives.
Read alone it is routinely mistaken for a per-player offer. Inside Athlavia it sits next to the squad size, the division's own limits and the published cost, which is the only way it means anything.
It is one of 42 institutions in Tennessee whose return reports athletic aid awarded to women, out of 46 that field women’s basketball at all.
What it costs and what it is like
A published cost is held for 2023-24: tuition, mandatory fees, room and board, insurance and a travel estimate, with the international tuition rate separately where the institution publishes one.
A single yearly total tells a family almost nothing. What decides whether a place is reachable is which line is the big one, and whether the international rate differs — so Athlavia shows the lines, not a headline.

How it compares
Across the 293 NCAA DII women’s basketball programmes in this database, the average listed squad is 17 players. Christian Brothers University lists 20, 3 players above that average. Among the 10 NCAA DII programmes in Tennessee, it has the 2nd largest listed squad.
Squad size is a fact about the return, not a judgement about the programme. A large squad can mean depth or it can mean a long bench; a small one can mean minutes are available or that the roster is already settled. It is a question to ask a coach, not an answer.
