Summer Bridge Program On Pause for Summer 2025
The Summer Bridge program will be on pause for Summer 2025 and is expected to return in Summer 2026. For summer housing options for newly-admitted students this year, please review our Edge Program and Summer Sessions options.


Congratulations on your acceptance to Cal! We invite all Summer Bridge students to live on campus, where you can make the most of Berkeley’s world-class education and campus experience. Our residence halls provide many opportunities for you to create lifelong friendships, build leadership skills, work, play, and get academic support to keep you on the road to graduation and success. On top of all that, it’s safe, easy, and convenient to live on campus.

Summer Bridge students live together in a shared residential complex just one block from campus in our newest location, Blackwell Hall! Professional and student staff live on-site and provide enriching programs and activities to facilitate a sense of community among Bridge students.

Summer Bridge students are eligible for priority housing if they apply before the priority housing deadline. In order to be considered for priority housing, students must complete the online summer housing application.
