List of college athletic programs in Montana

• This list is in a tabular format, with columns arranged in the following order, from left to right:
• *Athletic team description, with a link to the school's athletic program article if it exists. When only one nickname is listed, it is used for teams of both sexes. When two nicknames are given, the first is used for men's teams and the other is used for women's teams. Different nicknames for a specific sport within a school are noted separately below the table.
• *Full name of school.
• *Location of school.
• *Conference of the school.
• Apart from the ongoing conversions, the following notes apply:
• *Following the normal standard of U.S. sports media, the terms "University" and "College" are ignored in alphabetization, unless necessary to distinguish schools or are actually used by the media in normally describing the school, such as the College of Charleston.
• *Schools are also alphabetized by the names they are most commonly referred to by sports media, with non-intuitive examples included in parentheses next to the school name. This means, for example, that campuses bearing the name "University of North Carolina" may variously be found at "C", "N", and "U".
• *The prefix "St.", as in "Saint", is alphabetized as if it were spelled out.
