List of American universities with Olympic medalist students and alumni
The list of American universities with Olympic medalist students and alumni shows the number of Olympic medals won by students and alumni of American universities in the Olympic Games up through 2020 Tokyo Summer Olympics. Many of these athletes did not compete for the United States; the American college sports model, in which post-secondary institutions sponsor a wide range of athletic competitions and provide scholarships and subsidies to athletes with no regard for their origin, has the effect of drawing university-age athletes from all over the world to the United States for both academic and athletic study.
