A total of 11 NCAA Championship spots are available in the 1-meter, while nine spots are available in the 3-meter. The platform event will award seven qualifying positions for the NCAA Championships.
 
Divers who qualify in one event will also be eligible to compete in any additional event in which they finish within the top 12 at the zone meet.
 
The number of NCAA qualifying spots awarded to each zone is determined by the performance of divers from that zone at the previous year's NCAA Championships. Results from the 2025 NCAA Swimming & Diving Championships were used to determine the number of qualification spots allocated to Zone B for the 2026 season.
