Get Panoramic Apartment Lease Agreement - Uc Berkeley Housing

Housing transfers are not guaranteed and will be processed based upon our housing availability and the order in which we receive requests.

The University does not require any student to live in the residence halls. A student wanting to live in University housing needs to apply online by the deadline given for their student category, pay the $40 nonrefundable application fee, and accept a ten-month academic year contract with an advance payment.

Am I guaranteed housing in the Residence Hall? All incoming first-year students are guaranteed a housing offer for one year, provided they meet all deadlines and select “any room size, any location” as one of their housing preferences.

What is the lottery system and how do I get the room that I want? Students who apply for housing by the deadline are assigned a random lottery number. The Assignments Office uses these lottery numbers in conjunction with the student's top five preferences to assign spaces to applicants.

Analysts said rents in Berkeley are high for two reasons: First, there's little room to build new apartments; second, and most important, the tech boom has created strong demand.

Blackwell Hall: One of the newest (and therefore nicest) residence halls at Berkeley. This complex is one block from campus and features single and double rooms, with some floors being co-ed. Closest dining hall is probably Cafe 3, which is a block away.

Any student in this situation needs to fill out a Residence Hall Contract Cancellation Request Form at portal.housing.berkeley.edu, and provide documentation supporting his or her withdrawal from the University.

Research shows living on campus is correlated with academic success. All incoming freshman and transfer students entering UC Davis for fall quarter 2023 are guaranteed on-campus housing†.
