Athletics
Want to be on a sports team? You're not alone: at Dartmouth, three out of every four undergraduates participate in some form of organized athletics, joining one or more of our 34 varsity teams, 32 club sports & 24 intramural leagues. Our varsity teams compete at the NCAA Division 1 level and in the Ivy League and the ECAC (Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference). Since 2000, the College has invested $85 million in athletic and recreational facilities, including a new 14,000 square foot recreational fitness center and a 10,000 square foot varsity training center.
If team sports aren't what you're looking for, Dartmouth also offers dozens of physical education, fitness, and lifestyle courses, ranging from fencing to forestry and polocrosse to pilates (as well as seven kinds of yoga). Of course, there are always plenty of outdoor recreational options as well.
