Whoops, I probably should have looked to see where you are from before posting that.

Here in the U.S., the NCAA governs college athletics. They break schools down based upon student population. The largest schools, which are those you typically see on TV here playing sports, are Division I schools. Division III schools tend to be very small, and usually are private colleges. So for instance, the University of Iowa is a Division I school. It has a student population of just under 31,000, of which, 21,500 students are undergraduates. The University of Northern Iowa is a Division II school, and has a student population of 13,000, of which 11,000 are undergraduates. Finally, Simpson College (also located in Iowa) has a student population of 2,000, almost all of which are undergraduates.

So when you are comparing colleges local to your area, just look at the student population and figure the necessary handicap from there. Hope that helps.
