The 1964 NCAA Men's Soccer Championship was the sixth organized men's college soccer tournament by the National Collegiate Athletic Association, to determine the top college soccer team in the United States. The Navy Midshipmen, in their second straight title game appearance, won their first title, defeating the Michigan State Spartans 1-0 in the final on December 5, 1964.

In the title game, all-time lacrosse Hall of Famer Jimmy Lewis scored the game's only goal. This tournament featured 15 teams, a drop down from 16 teams the previous year. The tournament final was played in Providence, Rhode Island.
