UCSC Extension's Santa Cruz facility is located on historic Pacific Avenue in the heart of downtown Santa Cruz. Occupying the second floor of the "University Town Center," it has 10 meeting rooms and can accommodate groups from 20 to 100.

Many rooms feature high-speed T-1 internet connections, and there is a student lounge complete with complementary coffee and tea. Downtown parking is free for shorter visits and reasonably priced for longer stops-one adjacent lot offers all day parking for just one dollar.

The facility is located one block from the main Santa Cruz Metro station, which has frequent bus service running directly to and from the UCSC campus, making it an ideal place to hold off-campus meetings. To make it even better, UCSC groups get a discount on the room rental rate.

Half-day room rates start at just $125.
