Yes, some colleges make it a requirement. My wife is in a top Ivy League university and they required her to pass a swim test. Luckily she's a good swimmer. I don't know exactly why they do this. This really depends on the college. In the event a person is disabled a public college or University can NOT require any form of physical activity for admissions as it is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. A fear of water IS a disability. This kind of requirement would depend a lot on the cirriculum you are going to study. A siming test might make sense for a physical education major, but not very much for a music major.

Why is the ability to swim an inherited trait in a fish but a learne trait in a human being?
The ability to swim is a survival trait in fish, they instinctively know how to swim because they cannot survive otherwise. Therefore only fish that know how to swim can pass on their genes to the next generation. Humans may also have an inherent ability to swim. Babies have the ability to swim when they are very young - a reflex. However, they cannot surface for air by themselves. They later lose this ability and need to learn how to swim at a later stage.
