Financial Aid Estimator for the University of California, Berkeley
Welcome to the Cal-culator!  The Cal-culator is for prospective and current undergraduate, dependent,  students living in on-campus residence halls.  By answering a few simple questions, the Cal-culator will present you with an early estimate of your full-time cost of attendance and financial aid at the University of California, Berkeley (UC Berkeley). When you complete the Cal-culator online form, you are NOT applying for aid. For aid application instructions, see the UC Berkeley Office of Financial Aid web site.

What you will need:

  • Most recent income tax returns filed by the student and the student's parent(s)
  • Most recent W-2 forms and/or pay stubs with year-to-date information for the student and parent(s)
  • Current bank and brokerage/investment statements
