"We are thrilled to tell you that the Berkeley Bayit remodel has begun with completion expected by April 2024!! This coming year the Bayit will be on “Sabbatical” - consider it our biblical Jubilee year.  We look forward to housing students again starting in August of 2024.

Applications for the 2024-2024 Bayit are open! Apply at this link.
 
Please donate a meaningful gift to the capital campaign to help support our efforts and make the house sustainable for another 40 years. 
For more information, please contact us at: theberkeleybayit@gmail.com."
Our mission is to provide a home for progressive Jewish living, learning and events for both the residents and the Berkeley Jewish college student community.

About Us

Each year, 11-12 students live in the Berkeley Bayit and work to create a fun, distinctly Jewish, communal living environment. More than just a living space, the Bayit is a community initiative. We run programs for the wider UC Berkeley Jewish student community and strive to make the house a home away from home for Jewish students of all backgrounds. We have eight bedrooms, a bay view, and a kosher, vegetarian kitchen to accommodate different levels of kashrut observance, a big living room and a garden. We are located in a quiet residential neighborhood near the stadium in a historic Julia Morgan house that overlooks the campus and the Bay.
