Use the GSC

First Friday: Picnic on the Lawn Photo

Any UCSC Graduate Student is free to use the Grad Student Commons during the hours of 9 AM – 5 PM. After hours, grads can request door codes for 24/7 access to the Commons. Come enjoy a kitchen to prepare food, computers and wireless internet access, and a relaxing patio. Print and copy on the cheap ($0.06/black and white page, $0.18/ color page) or scan for free. Come to the GSC to kick back, play Wii, and much more!

Additionally, graduate students may reserve private study rooms for office hours, studying, or meetings. The Grad Commons can also be requested for use by organizations in need of space for an event. Check out our policies and reservation calendar for more information. We can’t wait to see you around the GSC!
