Short Courses

Education

Studying at UC Berkeley will impact the rest of your life. Whether it's for a semester or a full academic year, you will be learning at the world's top-ranked public university, gaining access to academically excellent classes taught by top-notch faculty. Immerse yourself in our diverse community, giving you new perspectives and inspiration to think about the world in new ways.

Housing services

Dormitories are recommended if you want a structured atmosphere with opportunities to meet new people through planned activities. Meals are sometimes provided, and you will likely have a roommate who is not a UC Berkeley Extension international student.

Library services

After the start of a semester-length Extension course, you can purchase a $25 6-month borrowing card for UC Berkeley Libraries. The borrowing card allows you to access licensed electronic resources, such as journals and databases, and the ability to check out up to 20 books at a time.

Medical services

Maintaining your health and well-being is an important part of your learning and program experience, so it's good news that Berkeley is ranked number 1 in this list of healthiest cities in the United States!
