Best Men’s Swimming Colleges

Top Men’s Swimming Colleges

NCSA analyzed 489 four-year colleges with men’s college swimming programs across four division levels (D1, D2, D3 and NAIA) to develop a list of the Best Men’s Swimming Colleges for Student-Athletes.

NCSA Power Rankings are based on proprietary analysis of “NCSA Favorites” data obtained from the college search activity of the millions of student-athletes on the NCSA recruiting network, U.S. News & World Report Best Colleges general academic rankings, and the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard graduation rates and average cost after aid.
