The 1963 NCAA Skiing Championships were contested at the Solitude Ski Resort in Big Cottonwood Canyon, Utah at the tenth annual NCAA-sanctioned ski tournament to determine the individual and team national champions of men's collegiate alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, and ski jumping in the United States.[1]

Colorado in the team standings.[2]

Dartmouth repeated as Skimeister (all four events). The downhill competition on Friday was a three-way tie, won by Dave Gorsuch of Western State and Colorado's Bill Marolt and Buddy Werner,[3] who reclaimed the alpine combined title he won two years earlier.[4] Future Olympic bronze medalist Jimmie Heuga of Colorado won Thursday's slalom, passing teammates Marolt and Werner in the second run.[5][6]
