Clubs based in the United States that play in a league that is an organization member of U.S. Soccer are generally eligible to compete for the U.S. Open Cup, so long as their league includes at least four teams and has a schedule of at least 10 matches for each club.

The other 16 teams come from the National Premier Soccer League and USL League Two and qualify through national league pathways, which use previous summer season standings to determine who qualifies for the slots.
