The 1963 NCAA swimming and diving championships were contested at the 27th annual swim meet sanctioned and hosted by the NCAA to determine the individual and team national champions of men's collegiate swimming and diving among its Division I member programs in the United States, culminating the 1962–63 NCAA swimming and diving season.
These championships were hosted by North Carolina State University at the Willis Casey Natatorium in Raleigh, North Carolina during March 1963.
