# 2025 NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament

The 2025 NCAA Division III women's basketball tournament is the tournament hosted by the NCAA to determine the national champion of Division III women's college basketball among its member programs in the United States, culminating the 2024–25 season. It again features a field of 64 teams.
The first four rounds are being played on campus sites, and the national semifinals and finals will be held at the Cregger Center at Roanoke College in Salem, Virginia, from March 20–22, 2025.

## Qualifying

A total of sixty-four bids were available for the tournament: Forty-three (43) automatic bids—awarded to the champions of the forty-two NCAA Division III conferences guaranteed a spot in the tournament and twenty-one (21) at-large bids to the highest rated programs that failed to win their respective leagues. The number of automatic bids increased by one this year due to the Collegiate Conference of the South getting an automatic bid.
