List of United States collegiate records in track and field


The United States collegiate records in track and field are the best marks in track and field events from collegiate athletes, done while the athletes were competing for an American institution of higher education.
The National Collegiate Athletic Association track and field system from which all collegiate records currently come from has been touted as one of the main reasons for the success of the United States on the global stage of athletics.
In the case of outdoor record-breaking performances achieved during the summer after the relevant national collegiate spring track and field championship has passed, both the best summer mark and the best in-season mark are listed.
Some of the records are maintained by the U.S. Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association or the Track & Field News publication.
