Recent events

On August 2, 2021, the conference revealed that it was rebranding itself as the United East Conference. The conference said that the name “United East” was chosen because it describes the conference’s commitment to collaborate on a shared mission in a diverse environment while also still giving a nod to the geographical placement of the member schools. The conference has never used the abbreviation of "UEC" in its branding.

This merger also provided member institutions an opportunity to decrease the number of associate memberships necessary to support the current sport offerings on each respective campus. When the merger was finalized sports with a large number of members would compete in north and south divisions.
On June 23, 2023, the CSAC and United East officially announced that the merged conference would retain the United East name, officially ending the CSAC on July 1, 2023. Consequently, all ten members from the CSAC, Cedar Crest College, Clarks Summit University joined the United East.
