The 2013 Philippine Collegiate Championship was the sixth edition of the Philippine Collegiate Champions League (PCCL), the postseason tournament to determine the national collegiate champions in basketball organized by the Samahang Basketbol ng Pilipinas (SBP), the national basketball federation. The tournament was the sixth edition of the tournament in its current incarnation, and the eleventh edition overall.

The De La Salle Green Archers defeated the SWU Cobras in the best-of-three championship series, 2–0. There was no third-place game in this year's edition of the tournament, and so the FEU Tamaraws and the San Beda Red Lions shared the third-place honors.
