Stefan Brits (born 19 January 1992) is a South African track and field athlete who competes in the long jump.

In his first major college meet, he was runner-up at the 2012 Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) indoor championship and was 20th at the NCAA Men's Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships later that year.

He set a meet record of 8.05 m (26 ft 4+3⁄4 in) in winning the 2013 ACC Outdoor title and was a three-time NCAA All-American, coming sixth at the NCAA Men's Division I Indoor Track and Field Championships and placing in the long jump and 4 × 100 metres relay at the 2013 NCAA Outdoor Championships.

This culminated with him being named the 2016 Academic All-American of the Year by the College Sports Information Directors of America, making him the second Florida State athlete ever to receive that honour, after shot putter and Rhodes Scholar Garrett Johnson.
