The increase in enrollment of California residents at UC Berkeley is a direct response to pressure from state lawmakers and Governor Gavin Newsom to prioritize local students.
The 3% rise in California resident enrollment at UC Berkeley, alongside an 11% drop in out-of-state and international students, reflects a significant policy shift within the UC system.
UC Berkeley has not only increased enrollment figures but also diversified its student body, with notable rises in Black, Native American, and Latino student enrollments.
Gov. Gavin Newsom’s budget support for UC is now contingent on the system’s commitment to increased enrollment of California residents, linking funding to these educational goals.
