gonna be a pretty big difference moving from irvine to berk. Good luck, you should get use to it pretty quick. Berk will break you in 
And as for housing, rent.com, apartments.com or craigslist.com. Look for an apartment, and unless your balling, you'd need a roomate.

I just went to craigslist.com when i moved out from the dorms 2 years ago.
But you probably need a roommate for the apartment. coz single room with bathroom usually goes for 1300 a month if you wanna live near campus.
or for about 1000 a month, you can live in Berkeley owned housing.

Hopefully I can get into grad school next year too.
It'll be cool to see another subaru around, but be extremely careful when you park on the street here in berkeley. People can't park, and they can care less if they hit your car while parking.
