Pacific School of Religion

Welcome to Pacific School of Religion and a new phase of your academic and spiritual journey! As Assistant Dean of Students and Community Life, I am pleased to assist you in your transition to PSR.

• Spring 2013 Arrival Guide
• Fall 2012 Arrival Guidebook
• Campus Wide Events Calendar 2012-2013

So that you will take full advantage of your experience in Berkeley we have compiled a guide to compliment the many other resources that exist about this and the surrounding communities. I encourage you to read this guidebook to help you ease into your new life here.

The information presented in this guide book is a compilation of the most frequently-asked questions that new students have when they first arrive at the Pacific School of Religion, including the tentative orientation schedule. Internet links are conveniently included as a reference for each section. 

When you arrive on campus, we will also provide you with a comprehensive Orientation program that will prepare you for a successful study at the Pacific School of Religion. Orientation is a requirement. The Spring Student Orienation begins on Monday, January 29 at 9:00 a.m. and ends on Tuesday, January 28 at 4:00 pm.
