St. Helena is just a quick trip down the hill, and you can often find students studying at one of the many coffee shops or taking a study break at Crane Park.

Welcome To Your PUC Virtual Experience
You're invited to join us through our new PUC Virtual Experience! Every visit is unique and customized just for you and your interests. Take a virtual campus tour with a PUC student, have a chat with a professor, learn all about the topics on your mind, get your questions answered, and more.
Plus, we'll send you some fun, free stuff when you're done!
Relax at the Beach
There are plenty of beaches within a short distance of PUC. Grab a blanket, a Frisbee, a guitar, and your friends and spend an afternoon on the coast.
Explore the City
There’s a reason why over 25 million people visit San Francisco each year! You will never have the same experience twice. You can catch the latest exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art, have a picnic at Crissy Field, go on a shopping spree at Union Square, or catch a Giants game at AT&T Park.
Become a #Foodie
Whether you’re eating at a Michelin star restaurant or grabbing food from the infamous taco truck in Yountville, there are hundreds of delicious options in the Bay Area no matter your tastes. Find some friends and start ordering!
Think Outside
For students interested in spending time outdoors, Northern California has limitless options. Go hiking at Mount St. Helena, take a mountain bike ride on the Napa Vine Trail, raft down the Russian River, ski at Lake Tahoe, go surfing at Ocean Beach, or simply take a nice stroll through the PUC forest.
Do You Have Finance Questions?
Freddy Whiteside, director of student financial services, has answers!
Connect with a Counselor
If you were here on campus we would probably be standing in front of the PUC rock, chatting about your hobbies and academic interests. We would be offering you advice about college applications and scholarships and answering any questions you might have. As we walked around campus we’d be chatting about what our favorite classes were, where the best places to eat are, and what the most popular intramural sports are. So … let’s do it anyway!
Send us your info and we’ll be in touch!
