University Athletic Association "The Nerdy Nine" Brandeis | Carnegie Mellon | Case | Emory NYU | Chicago | Rochester | Wash. U.

The University Athletic Association (UAA) is an athletic conference which competes in the National Collegiate Athletic Association's (NCAA) Division III. Member teams are located in Georgia, Illinois, Missouri, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Ohio and New York.

Because each of the member universities places a stronger emphasis on academics than athletics, this conference is sometimes referred to as the "Nerdy Nine" (even though there are now only eight members).
