The Merrimack Warriors began the transition from Division II to Division I, joining the Northeast Conference.^[39]

Long Island University announced in October 2018 that its two current athletic programs—the Division I LIU Brooklyn Blackbirds and the Division II LIU Post Pioneers—would merge into a single Division I athletic program under the LIU name after the 2018–19 school year. The unified program, which maintains LIU Brooklyn's Division I and Northeast Conference memberships, announced its new nickname of Sharks on May 15, 2019.^[40][41] With both campuses having sponsored men's soccer, the two teams became a single LIU team based at the Post campus in Nassau County, New York in the 2019 season.^[42]

In addition to LIU, one other Division I men's soccer program assumed a new athletic identity during the 2018–19 offseason. On July 1, 2019, the University of Missouri–Kansas City (UMKC) announced that its athletic program, previously known as the UMKC Kangaroos, would henceforth be known as the Kansas City Roos.^[43]

Three schools that sponsor men's soccer began transitions from Division II in the 2020–21 school year. Bellarmine will join the ASUN Conference,^[44] Dixie State will join the Western Athletic Conference,^[45] and UC San Diego will join the Big West Conference.^[46]

Despite the program's many successes, the University of New Mexico's Board of Regents voted, for economic reasons, to discontinue the men's soccer program and three other sports teams at the conclusion of their 2018–19 seasons.^[47]

This was also the final season for four schools in their then-current conferences. The Cal State Bakersfield Roadrunners and Kansas City Roos both left their then-current home of the Western Athletic Conference, with the Roadrunners joining the Big West Conference^[48] and the Roos returning to the Summit League^[49] in July 2020.^[46] The Purdue Fort Wayne Mastodons left the Summit League for the Horizon League.^[50] The UConn Huskies left the American Athletic Conference to join several of their former conference mates in the Big East Conference.^[51]
