Room Tours

Once you’ve explored the types of housing available and narrowed down your choices, why not take a tour, either on-campus or online? You can stop by our offices if you're visiting, reserve an appointment, or take an online video tour.

Reserved On-campus Residence Hall Tours 

Residence Hall tours feature a visit to a standard triple occupancy room in either Unit 1 or Unit 2.  Visitors will tour the common area spaces, view the amenities of the featured location, and receive information about the student experience living in on-campus housing at UC Berkeley.  Questions about living in the residence halls or undergraduate apartments are welcome!  Tours are led by either a UC Student Ambassador or a member of the Cal Housing staff.

Tours are available Monday - Friday at 3 pm from February 10 - March 26. Beginning March 26, tours will run two times daily, Monday - Friday, at 12 pm (noon) and 3 pm.

To schedule a housing tour please sign up here.

For more information about tours please email us a housingtours@berkeley.edu or give us a call at 510.642.4108. 

If You’re Visiting Campus

If you are visiting the campus and are unable to make a Residence Hall tour, but would like more information about housing options, please visit our office on the second floor at 2610 Channing Way, where you can speak with housing staff and pick up a brochure. We are open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.

If you wish to schedule a Campus Tour you may do so at the UC Berkeley Visitor Services website.
