Does it field a women’s basketball team?
Yes. Dutchess Community College reported 11 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 NJCAA (junior college), and no conference affiliation is recorded here. It is one of 27 NJCAA women's basketball programmes in New York, out of 130 programmes there in total.
The athletics department’s own site is where the current roster and coaching staff are published.
Can it award a basketball scholarship?
NJCAA Divisions I and II permit athletically-related student aid; Division III does not. The federal return records the association but not the division, so this page does not state which applies here.
NJCAA rules allow athletic aid, but no figure has been recorded for this institution. That is an absence of evidence rather than evidence of absence: ask the coaching staff directly what is available for basketball.
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 346 NJCAA women’s basketball programmes in this database, the average listed squad is 13 players. Dutchess Community College lists 11, 2 players below that average. Among the 27 NJCAA programmes in New York, it has the 14th 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.
