In 2005, The Department of Athletics announced a planned two year phase out of the intercollegiate sports program at Alliant International University's San Diego campus due to the high price of funding the program. The Men's and Women's Soccer, Cross Country, Track and Field, Tennis, and Women's Volleyball Teams concluded operations and competition after the 2006-2007 academic year.
In 2008, the Mexican government issued an alert, labeling Alliant International University a diploma mill.
