2023 Atlantic Coast Conference men's soccer season

The 2023 Atlantic Coast Conference men's soccer season was the 70th season of men's varsity soccer in the conference.

Syracuse were the defending regular season champions of the Atlantic Division and Wake Forest were the defending regular season champions of the Coastal Division. Syracuse were the defending ACC tournament champions. Syracuse went on to win the 2022 NCAA tournament and entered the season as defending national champions on top of their league titles.

Wake Forest repeated as champions of the Atlantic Division and Notre Dame won the Coastal Division regular season title. Neither of those two teams could use their regular season championships to win the ACC tournament title, as Clemson won as the fourth seed. Nine ACC teams would go on to qualify for the NCAA tournament. Notre Dame and Clemson both qualified for the College Cup and both won their Semifinal victories to face-off in the National Championship game. Clemson would go on to win the game 2–1. This was Clemson's second title in three years, and it marked the third straight year that an ACC team won the college soccer championship.

MLS SuperDraft
The ACC had twenty players selected in the 2024 MLS SuperDraft, which were the most picks from any conference. The ACC also lead all conferences with six first round selections. The twenty selections were the second most in ACC history behind the 2021 MLS SuperDraft.

Homegrown players
The Homegrown Player Rule is a Major League Soccer program that allows MLS teams to sign local players from their own development academies directly to MLS first team rosters. Before the creation of the rule in 2008, every player entering Major League Soccer had to be assigned through one of the existing MLS player allocation processes, such as the MLS SuperDraft.

To place a player on its homegrown player list, making him eligible to sign as a homegrown player, players must have resided in that club's home territory and participated in the club's youth development system for at least one year. Players can play college soccer and still be eligible to sign a homegrown contract.
