FAQs
Here are some of the most common questions about the academic calendar at UC Berkeley. On the Student Enrollment Calendar, you can also find other important dates and due dates.
How do I check my final exam schedule for UC Berkeley?
After you sign up for Cal Central, you can find out when all of your final exams are. At the end of the 11th week of class, the official Final Exam Schedule will be made available. Courses that are online have a W in front of their number (e.g., Psych W1). Not all final exams for online classes are given in person. If you don’t know what kind of final test your online course will have, talk to your teacher.
What is Berkeley RRR week?
RRR Week is the week after the last formal class at Berkeley and before the final exams. Reading, Review, and Recitation is what RRR stands for.
It’s meant to give students time to study for tests, finish final papers and projects, and attend optional review sessions and meetings with teachers.
The idea behind RRR week is that students learn more when they have time to think about what they have learned over the course of the semester.
Are there classes during RRR week, Berkeley?
During RRR week at Berkeley, there are no classes. But the state legislature and federal rules for financial aid count RRR days as days of instruction.
The official end of formal classes and the “last day of instruction” are marked on the UC Berkeley academic calendar.
What is Cal Day?
Cal Day is a huge collection of events that show how smart and fun UC Berkeley is. About 40,000 people visit the usually busy Berkeley campus every year for the campus-wide open house. The date for Cal Day 2022 will be put on the UC Berkeley Academic Calendar.
Is UC Berkeley on semesters or quarters?
A semester system is used at the University of California, Berkeley. Most semester systems last between 14 and 16 weeks. They have 3 parts: Autumn, Spring, and Summer.
But, except for Cal and UC Merced, all of the UCs use a 10-week quarter system.
