The 1950 NCAA Cross Country Championships were the 12th annual cross country meet to determine the team and individual national champions of men's collegiate cross country running in the United States.

The meet was hosted by Michigan State College on November 27, 1950, at the Forest Akers East Golf Course in East Lansing, Michigan. The distance for the race was 4 miles (6.4 kilometers).

The team national championship was won by the Penn State Nittany Lions, their third. The individual championship was won by Herb Semper, from Kansas, with a time of 20:31.7.[2]
