The Official Home of University of Illinois Athletics
The University of Illinois Division of Intercollegiate Athletics has witnessed vast changes to the landscape of collegiate sports, and there can be no doubt that major college athletic programs have evolved over the years into multi-million dollar enterprises. At Illinois, however, be assured that the business aspects of amateur athletics will never compromise the pursuit of its mission. Illinois is committed to producing champions on- and off-the-field by adhering to principles that transcend the balance sheet. In fiscal year 2011 Illinois once again, for the 19th straight year, operated within a balanced budget and continued to reduce debt.
The DIA receives no state tax dollars, and it is only through the boundless generosity of its loyal donors, the support of the student body, and the tireless efforts of the DIA's administration and staff that it continues to outperform expectations. Because of these many stakeholders, it is possible to fully fund every athletic program, providing the maximum number of scholarships allowed to each sport under NCAA guidelines, and to operate in a fiscally responsible and disciplined manner.
