All member institutions were located in the State of Wisconsin.

All of these schools were (and remain) State institutions, most of them had been founded as normal schools in the late 19th century. They were renamed as state teachers colleges, state colleges, and state universities before becoming campuses of the University of Wisconsin System when the latter merged with the Wisconsin State Universities in 1971.{{Cite web |title=Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference |url=https://wiacsports.com/ |access-date=2023-08-03 |website=Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference |language=en}}

Wisconsin State College–Milwaukee became University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee in 1956, and left the conference.

In July 1997, the nine members of the WSUC merged with the Wisconsin Women’s Intercollegiate Athletic Conference to form the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference.
