It's been going since 2002. Auburn has won the national championship 6 times. Georgia has won at least that many. It's a beautiful sport to watch.

.
Yep, Auburn did so the prior year. Actually all four SEC sponsors have won national championships and dominated..
It's a growing sport. The Big 12 also has 4 programs; at Baylor, Kansas State, Oklahoma State, and TCU. No other major conference offers competition. Minnesota has a Div. 2 program. It looks popular in the State of Texas.
Mississippi State seems somewhat ideal to have a program, but they don't. They either haven't seriously thought about it, or don't want to spend the money. It'll take interested women to push it.
It's kind of a classy sport. I know people with the SC program and have the proximity to observe. Beautiful horses.

Some schools have club sports. Alabama has one for example and I think Ole Miss does as well. Not sure about the others. Also not sure what the process is for elevating it because I don't think the NCAA actually sponsors it.

I thought Kentucky has one as well. I know UK has (had?) a pretty good equestrian team.
Louisville has one as well but far less successful.

Lenvillecards, this 2016 article may answer your question. SEC competition are all women riders. Title IX plays a factor.
https://www.kentucky.com/living/article75521612.html
"Though it has been nearly four years since the Southeastern Conference added equestrian riding, the UK team isn’t part of that. There are two reasons: the SEC doesn’t allow male riders — and the UK team has one — and because it’s very competitive, beginning riders don’t stand much of a chance."
The University of Louisville, Georgetown College in KY, and Midway College in KY, are part of 12 schools that receive scholarships from the United States Pony Club, Inc.
The National Collegiate Equestrian Association (NCEA) would be a separate entity.

I don't know about Ole Miss, but Alabama and Mississippi State do participate in the Intercollegiate Horse Show Association (IHSA). They compete with Georgia and Auburn at least on some aspects
Basically, programs at Auburn, UGA, USC, and Tex. A&M, are just so much more developed. It's pretty new since 2011/12.
The MSU program:

The IHSA is JV & Varsity. The IHSA starts with trot classes & goes up from there. In the NCEA competing riders ride the same horse while in the IHSA horses are drawn at random.
I don’t like to promote UK but I will promote their coach as she is a friend. UK often competes at the IHSA nationals.

The NCEA does not have the rider riding the same horse. What happens in the NCEA is that the horses don't travel. When A&M visits Auburn for a match the riders share the horses of the home team. When competition is scored those competing in an event are riding the same horse. That eliminates the horse as a variable. When Auburn visits Georgia they ride Georgia's horses. So the riders do not ride the same horse.
When I originally posted on this, I meant to emphasize NCAA programs which are as follows, and listed from the SEC sports article posted prior::
"Division 1 NCAA Equestrian Programs:
Auburn University in Alabama
Baylor University in Texas
Brown University in Rhode Island
California State University, Fresno
College of Charleston in South Carolina
Cornell University in New York
Delaware State University
University of Georgia
Kansas State University
New Mexico State University
Oklahoma State University
Sacred Heart University in Connecticut
University of South Carolina
South Dakota State University
Southern Methodist University in Texas
Stephen F. Austin University in Texas
Texas Christian University
University of Tennessee, Martin
Texas A&M University, College Station
Division 2 NCAA Equestrian Programs:
University of Minnesota
Pace University in New York
Stonehill College in Massachusetts
West Texas A&M"
The SEC &:B12 have conference competition & championships under the auspices of the NCAA. Thus, the Title IX comment. The NCAA would not regulate the club sports and intramurals, or control organizational
competition in this sport for non-NCAA affiliated events, even if a NCAA member program(s) are competing in the event.

Thats what I said, the competing riders ride the same horse. In the IHSA riders competing against each other ride different horses which allows for a horse variable. It can be the luck of the draw.
