Does it field a women’s basketball team?
Yes. Utah Valley University reported 14 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 I and in the Big West Conference. It is one of 7 NCAA DI women's basketball programmes in Utah, out of 10 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 I rules permit athletically-related student aid.
Utah Valley 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 10 institutions in Utah whose return reports athletic aid awarded to women, out of 10 that field women’s basketball at all.
What it costs and what it is like
No cost snapshot is held for Utah Valley University. Athlavia will not print an estimate in its place — tuition varies by residency, by course and by year, and a made-up number is worse than an empty one. The institution’s own admissions pages carry the published figures.

How it compares
Across the 356 NCAA DI women’s basketball programmes in this database, the average listed squad is 17 players. Utah Valley University lists 14, 3 players below that average. Among the 7 NCAA DI programmes in Utah, it has the 5th 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.
