University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley) ๐ป๐
Located in the East Bay, about 30 minutes by car from San Francisco ๐. The campus is relatively compact, filled with green lawns and lush plants ๐ฟ. Youโll often see students reading, playing sports, or just relaxing on the grass โ very chill! ๐๏ธ Campus Landmarks: Sather Gate and Sather Tower (just 5 mins apart) โ the tower rings bells on the hour ๐ Student Store (search this name!): Love their merch โ especially the cups ๐ฅค๐งข. Itโs in a basement right by the street. ๐ผ Career Support: Berkeley Career Engagement offers 1-on-1 coaching and practical workshops โ like resume writing โ super helpful for job seekers! ๐โจ โ ๏ธ Stay Safe: Berkeley can be unsafe at night โ avoid walking alone after dark ๐. Never leave items in your car ๐๐ฅ โ break-ins are common. ๐ด Food & Life: Lots of affordable restaurants around campus โ much cheaper than SF! ๐๐ฎ #UCBerkeley #Cal #BayArea #CampusLife #StudyInUSA #Berkeley
