Forty-four conferences were awarded automatic qualification for the 2014 championship. The final 20 berths were reserved for Pool C, which include institutions from automatic-qualifying conferences that are not the conference champion and any Pool B teams. There were no separate berths awarded this year to Pool B, which consists of independent institutions, and institutions that are members of conferences that do not meet the requirements for automatic qualification.
Sixteen four-team sites will conduct first- and second-round play on the first weekend of the championship, Nov. 14-15 or 15-16. Second-round winners will advance to one of four sectional sites Nov. 21-22 or 22-23. All games, except the semifinals and final, will be played on the campuses of competing institutions. Winners of the four sectionals will advance to the semifinals Dec. 5-6, at Swope Soccer Village in Kansas City, Missouri.
