Financial Aid
We know financial aid is important in order to provide as many students as possible the opportunity to join Summer Sessions.
Financial Aid Information for UC Berkeley Students
Visit the Financial Aid & Scholarships website to learn about what options are available for financial aid during the summer. On the site you’ll find info on:

Summer Aid Estimator
Estimate how much financial aid you might receive by logging into CalCentral and navigating to Financial Resources under My Finances to select “Summer Cost and Aid Estimator.”
Summer Sessions Loan
The Summer Sessions loan now offers expanded eligibility for students enrolled in at least 6 units in any single UC Berkeley summer session or combination of sessions, Berkeley Summer Abroad program, and summer UC Education Abroad Program (UCEAP). Students who received the Middle Class Scholarship (MCS) may qualify for this low-interest, subsidized loan.
Financial Aid for Visiting Students
Unfortunately, visiting students are not eligible for aid from UC Berkeley. Please speak to the financial aid office at your home institution for advice on financial resources.
