I'm quoting here from the College Hockey Guide.....
"The ACHA is a national organization of four year colleges and two year
colleges, which have agreed to conform to a common set of rules and
regulations. Current membership includes of ninety college teams. National
championships are currently held for men at the Division I and Division II
levels."
 
The ACHA is the governing body for member club hockey programs. Division I
follows all NCAA regulations about eligibility, academics, etc. Division II
is a little more free-form.
