Welcome to the UC Berkeley NARRC

Hello and welcome to the Native American Recruitment and Retention Center at Cal! As our name indicates, we recruit and retain Native students to the UC Berkeley Campus, but generally, we are the undergraduate Indian Community at Cal.

Our membership of students come from all over representing tribal nations as local as California and as distant as Canada. Our goal is to maintain our academic success at UC Berkeley while also maintaining our cultural identity as Native peoples. Our student run resource center provides a number of services not only for our comnmunity at Cal, but for the Bay Area Native Community as well.

Our organization hosts a number of recruitment trips promoting higher education to Indian communities across California and as far as Alaska! In addition, our retention center located on campus provides a number of resources for the academic success of our students through the Native American Advisory Council. You can read more about NAAC here. Our most well-known event on campus would be our annual Pow Wow hosted by our students through the InterTribal Student Council. Our Pow Wow is always free and open to the public.

We work hard on our academics and are committed providing resources for our community, but we are also a very social fun loving family! See the faces of NARRC in our photos section and get a better idea of who we are and what we do!
