History

The most recent changes to conference membership took place in 2020, with two full members and one associate member leaving.

Wittenberg University, which became a men's volleyball associate in 2018–19, left the AMCC to return to the Midwest Collegiate Volleyball League, where it had played from the start of its program in the 2015–16 school year through 2017–18. Medaille College joined the entirely New York-based Empire 8, effective the 2022–23 school year. Wells College, current affiliate member for swimming and diving, added men's volleyball to compete in the AMCC as an affiliate, effective the 2023 spring season (2022–23 school year). Carlow University joined in 2023–24 from the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics' River States Conference but spent its exploratory year in the prior NAIA season.
