Explanation of Fees
- Class Pass / Transit Fee: As part of the per unit fee, UC Berkeley charges a Class Pass / Transit Fee of $68 per semester (on your bills it will be called the CLPASS fee). All students must pay this fee, and it cannot be waived even if you later withdraw for the semester. Consequently we have itemized it separately above.
- Student Health Insurance: This fee can be waived by submitting the health insurance waiver form online with proof of a comparable health insurance policy. The deadline for submission of the waiver is July 15th for continuing students and August 31st for entering students. The waiver must be completed each year at University Health Services. Please note that student health insurance does not include spouse or dependents; that coverage must be purchased separately. Refer to the SHIP website for details.
- This budget does not include items such as credit card debt or automobile expenses. We recommend that you reduce these obligations before you enter school, as they cannot be considered in your financial aid budget under federal regulations.
