The 1937 NCAA Swimming and Diving Championships were contested as part of the first annual NCAA swim meet to determine the team and individual national champions of men's collegiate swimming and diving in the United States.

The championship was hosted by the University of Minnesota at the University of Minnesota Armory in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

Even though an unofficial NCAA championship had been held since 1924, this was the first event with an official team score.

Michigan won the team national championship, defeating rival Ohio State by 36 points, 75–39.[1]
