Intercollegiate Horse Shows Association

The IHSA is dedicated to promoting sportsmanship, horsemanship and academic excellence welcoming beginners through advanced riders in the hunter and Western disciplines to compete individually or on a team.

IHSA eliminates the expenses of horse ownership. Horses are furnished by host colleges and are chosen by drawing lots. The use of personal tack is not allowed and schooling is not permitted. The format fairly tests the horsemanship of the athletes. Divisions range from Beginner to the Open Division for the more experienced riders.
