University of California, Berkeley: Should we buy personal-property insurance for campus housing?
DIRECT ANSWER
Source guidance recorded on 2026-10-15. Confirm the applicable policy year, cohort and property jurisdiction before relying on time-sensitive facts.
UC Berkeley strongly recommends that residents consider personal-property insurance. Review a policy’s limits, deductibles, covered belongings and liability; a university recommendation or insurer advertising does not mean the university insures the resident’s belongings.
