The 1995 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship game was the finals of the 1995 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament and it determined the national champion for the 1994-95 NCAA Division I men's basketball season The game was played on April 3, 1995, at the Kingdome in Seattle, Washington. The game featured the West Regional Champion, #1-seeded UCLA versus the Midwest Regional Champion and defending National Champion, #2-seeded Arkansas.

UCLA defeated Arkansas 89–78 to clinch their first national title since 1975, denying the Razorbacks a second consecutive title. As of 2026, this is the last time a team from California won the national championship.

Due to the NCAA's preference for holding the Final Four and title games in domed stadiums, these were the last such games to be played in a western state until 2017 which was held at University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. It was also the last Final Four in Seattle, a city which had hosted the event 4 times previously. Additionally this was the last time for the foreseeable future that the Pacific Northwest hosted a Final Four or Regional Final after playing host to the aforementioned 4 in Seattle along with 1 in Portland.
