QUALIFICATION CRITERIA: NCAA Zone "D" has been allocated seven NCAA Championships bids for men's divers and nine bids for women's divers. Below is the rank of criteria utilized to determine the qualifiers for the NCAA Championships. The criteria are implemented until seven men and nine women are selected.
As an example, in accordance with the listing below, if women's diver A wins the one-meter, three-meter and platform events, only one NCAA Championships bid is taken by that diver, eight women's bids remain available. If three separate divers win the platform, one-meter and three-meter events, three bids are awarded and six remain. Bids are not subtracted from a zone if one diver wins two or more events. The progression down the list of criteria continues until seven male divers and nine female divers are selected.
All springboard events feature a six-dive preliminary round that is cut to a field of 18 prior to finals, which also consist of six divers per diver. The platform diving preliminary round features five dives for women (same for finals) and six dives for men (same for finals).
