Clark Kerr Campus

Clark Kerr Campus is undergraduate residence-hall housing at UC Berkeley, about a 17-minute walk or 5-minute bike ride from campus. UC Berkeley Housing lists it as Clark Kerr Residence Hall, a low-rise Spanish mission-style mini-neighborhood about six blocks southeast of the main campus at 2601 Warring Street. Official pages describe tree-lined courtyards, green spaces, and a quieter, less urban setting than the central campus halls. First-year, continuing, and transfer undergraduates are eligible. The hall has traditional corridor-style rooms on all-gender floors that share a communal bathroom and lounges, and single-gender suites of two to three rooms with shared bathrooms, a common area, and a separate locked entrance. Doubles, triples, quads, and a limited number of singles are offered; triples are the most common option, and the few singles are typically reserved for students with a documented disability need. Housing rates state that large triples (designed as triples with three floor-level beds and no bunk beds) and quad rooms are available only at this hall. Rooms are furnished and include a Microchill refrigerator and microwave combo. The Blue and Gold Meal Plan is included, with upgrades and add-ons available, and Clark Kerr dining commons is on site in a historic building with outdoor patios. Residents have an on-site Academic Center with flexible study spaces, a fitness center, recreation room, self-serve laundry, bike storage, a community garden, and sand volleyball courts. Live-in UC Berkeley staff are available 24/7. The complex sits next to Golden Bear Recreation Center, which includes a swimming pool, tennis courts, and an outdoor track, and housing lists easy access to hiking trails. Clark Kerr also hosts the Global Environment Theme House (GETH), a theme program at no extra cost. UniShack does not assign rooms or process housing applications. Confirm deadlines—first-year students typically apply by May 2—and submit hall and room preferences on the official UC Berkeley Housing Portal.
