The 2004 NCAA Women's Division I Swimming and Diving Championships were contested at the 23rd annual NCAA-sanctioned swim meet to determine the team and individual national champions of Division I women's collegiate swimming and diving in the United States.
This year's events were hosted by Texas A&M University at the Student Recreation Center Natatorium in College Station, Texas.
Along with the 2000 edition, this was one of only two NCAA championship meets held in short course meters (25 m) rather than the NCAA's traditional short-course yards (25 yd) format. This allowed world records to be set at the competition.
Two-time defending champions Auburn again topped the team standings, finishing 138 points ahead of Georgia. This was the Tigers' third women's team title.
