Does it field a women’s basketball team?

Yes. Goucher College reported 19 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 III and in the Landmark Conference. It is one of 8 NCAA DIII women's basketball programmes in Maryland, out of 33 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?

Athletic scholarships are not permitted here

NCAA Division III does not permit athletically-related student aid of any kind. A Division III programme can still be an excellent destination, but no basketball scholarship exists at one — the money there is academic and need-based aid.

Money is still available here: academic awards, need-based grants and institutional bursaries. What does not exist is an award made because of basketball. A recruiter offering one at a NCAA DIII institution is describing something the rules do not allow.

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.

Athlavia holds the cost breakdown

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 399 NCAA DIII women’s basketball programmes in this database, the average listed squad is 16 players. Goucher College lists 19, 3 players above that average. Among the 8 NCAA DIII programmes in Maryland, it has the 1st 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.
