Apartment Description

Applications are now being accepted for single graduate students interested in living in UC Berkeley’s largest and newest apartment community designed specifically for graduate students. The new complex is called xučyun ruwway (pronounced HOOCH-yoon... ROO-why), a name in Chochenyo, the language of the Ohlone people. Learn more about the unique history and development of the complex, including consultation with East Bay Ohlone tribes in its naming.

xučyun ruwway is a five-building apartment complex offering Berkeley graduate students a wealth of community resources such as an on-site fitness center, light-filled meeting rooms, spacious lounges, and more than 55,000 square feet of outdoor space with gardens, picnic areas and recreational lawns. Direct AC Transit buses to campus are available from the complex, which is located 3.5 miles northwest of campus.

Fully-furnished apartments feature large windows that allow abundant natural light into bedrooms and living spaces. All bedrooms are single-occupancy, and each apartment includes a full kitchen with major appliances, as well as an in-unit washer and dryer.

Beyond their apartments, students can discover spaces for social interaction and well-being, including lounges and meeting rooms. A series of outdoor courtyards provide more than 55,000 square feet of space for relaxing, studying and socializing. Students can lounge and explore gardens with native plants and lush trees, host barbecue gatherings, and take advantage of recreational spaces on new multi-use lawns and terraces. All buildings will be fully electric, promoting environmental consciousness through energy-efficient features that include electric building utilities, lighting and kitchen appliances, and even the outdoor community barbecue grill.

Applications for the 2024–25 academic year are being accepted on a rolling basis. In-person tours are available by appointment; schedule a tour today. For updates on the project’s construction, please visit the Capital Strategies xučyun ruwway page.
