The 1995 NCAA Division I women's soccer tournament was the 14th annual single-elimination tournament to determine the national champion of NCAA Division I women's collegiate soccer. The semifinals and championship game were played at Fetzer Field in Chapel Hill, North Carolina during December 1995.

Notre Dame defeated Portland in the final, 1–0 (in three overtimes), to win their first national title. Coached by Chris Petrucelli, the Irish finished the season 21–2–2. This was the first championship since 1985 not won by North Carolina, whose record streak of nine consecutive national titles (1986–1994) was broken. This was also the first final match to not feature the Tar Heels.

The most outstanding offensive player was Cindy Daws from Notre Dame, and the most outstanding defensive player was Kate Sobrero, also from Notre Dame. Daws and Sobrero, were named to the All-tournament team.

The tournament's leading scorer, with 4 goals and 1 assist, was Danielle Garrett from SMU.
