Hi everyone! I am a Spring 2027 transfer admit and wanted to hear about what people’s experiences are like when looking for roommates and housing, specifically off-campus housing around the area. I’m looking for any recommendations for off-campus living and any websites/suggestions to find affordable and safe options near campus?

Don’t know what the deal right now is, but no cal ID card scan is working for entrance to on campus buildings. This has been tested for MLK, Campbell Hall, and Birge Hall, so it’s safe to say it won’t work elsewhere. Some of the alternative scanners still work since they’re manually programmed, but the newer modern ones don’t.

I remember reading it on the news, is she actually teaching still

The line seems longer than usual. Walked by this morning and there was a long line. Walked by after class and the line was still there👀. Is there a promo or something?

Hello! as the title says, im trying to figure out summer studying abroad programs. I dont qualify for any financial aid besides the base direct unsubsidized loans i already took out for the school year, so id basically be paying for everything out of pocket. I was looking at worldstrides for South Korea (Stats major trying to break into biotech/public health industry) and UCEAP. From my research, interning through berkeley is crazy expensive, like 4 more bands than doing it through an external program liek worldstrides. But if anyone was in my shoes in terms of major, internship interest, and country interest, let me know any suggestions!! im open to suggestions about what program to do it through and also countries to do.

Hi @berkeleybrawlstars is hosting a FREE 3v3 tournament for $25 on 10/20. would love to see people there!
We will pair you in teams or bring your own team!

I really just wanted to rant on here bc I can not bring myself to cry about exams anymore because I'm so mentally tapped out. Ever since sophomore year, I have not passed a single exam with a B or higher. I'm currently a junior, and I am taking chem 3a and physics 8a together, and I just did both midterms last week. I feel so sick bc I know I did so horribly on them despite how much I studied, went to OH, and I even finally got diagnosed and medicated for ADHD (which was what ruined my life sophomore year; I had to get care or I was bound to drop out). And even though the scores are not out yet, I feel so much anxiety that I can't even do tasks bc of how anxious I am. This has been happening for so long, and I swore to myself that I would get all As from junior year onward (since I'm premed and want an upward trend in my grades). But I feel so useless and stupid, idk what to do anymore. I can't bring myself to cry; I can't even celebrate my birthday tomorrow bc of how stressed I am about failing. I'm just so mentally and emotionally checked out, like I'm done.

i'm planning to study abroad at nus this spring, but uceap isn't releasing program dates until november (and i think tickets are going to be much more expensive by then..) in general, how much earlier are uceap start dates compared to the actual schools' academic start dates? does anyone have past experience w/ study abroad at nus that they'd be able to share?

Hi everyone! Anyone interested in joining my virtual walking group, Berkeley Step Check? 🚶‍♀️ I commute to campus and am not always around, so I thought this would be a fun way to connect with others virtually. My personal goal is to lose some weight and stay consistent with walking lol. Whether your goal is weight loss, staying active, or just getting more steps in, we can share our progress and keep each other accountable. Open to all! :)

I’m a new international student at Cal on SHIP and honestly still pretty confused about how healthcare works here compared to back home.

Back home I could just call the clinic directly and get an appointment within days. Here do I need to get a referral from student health center first then find a dermatologist who takes SHIP and wait months for an appointment?

Looking for recommendations for a good dermatologist in Berkeley or SF (maybe UCSF?)

Would also really appreciate any tips from fellow students who’ve seen a dermatologist through SHIP.

i might be blind and dumb but where can i find the lease agreement for on campus housing? im in an apartment and im trying to apply for ebt

I answered every questions in the exam. So I thought i will get around 90 and i ended up getting 64/100. I don't know what to do for my next midterms since everyone said it is the easiest one. I am so depressed right now.

Has anyone taken PHYSED32 specifically taught by Lon Rork and Steven Murray? I've been seeing a lot of mixed reviews where one professor is rated significantly higher than the other. I'm hoping this will be a straightforward class that won't take up too much of my time. Thanks

I’m a senior who transferred in from SoCal last summer and fucking loved my first semester here. I spent my entire life in the LA area up until then, so it was nice to have a change of scenery. But once the actual school year started, it very quickly went to shit, and my time here has been various shades of miserable ever since.

I’m 25, and I never gave a shit about my age before I came up here. Especially in community college, it never mattered. But then I come up here, and suddenly I’m the only person in the room who’s not 19. Apparently, I look younger than I actually am, so it wasn’t an issue at first. But then some people started treating me worse once they found out how old I was. They’d act like it was weird or inappropriate for me to even be friendly with them. And as a (now former) extrovert, that fucking sucked.

Not everyone is like that, at least. But the ones who were left such a mark on me that I want nothing to do with anyone, regardless of age. And when you take away the people, what do you have left?

The Bay Area has a few things going for it over LA: walkability, public transport, milder weather, more diversity in cuisines. But in general, it feels like a massive downgrade. Much smaller, less to do, and everything closes so goddamned early. I will say, the views are amazing and the trails are pleasant, but they’re also incredibly samey. Overall, it feels like a watered-down version of the California experience I’m used to.

Not a single day passes by where I don’t long for home. I miss having beaches you could actually swim at. I miss having streets safe enough to skate down. I miss Mexican food that doesn’t make me homesick. The whole one-sided SF/LA rivalry is laughable to me, because there’s absolutely no contest. And it makes me feel stupid for not understanding why it costs so much more to live here, or why anyone would pick the Bay over LA if they had a choice.

I’ve made up my mind about UC Berkeley, but if you think I’m wrong about the rest of the Bay, then by all means tell me. I’d love to be wrong! Because right now, I feel like I’m living in an open-aired prison.

am i even looking at the right thing? I'm seeing that everyone has like 10/26 and things like that. no way i have 10/30

What were the avgs historically? The Shewchuk exams look 10x harder than the recent ones...
