University of the Pacific - Stockton, CA Area Guide

A founding institution of California’s higher education community

Private Urban Historic Tigers River

First opening its doors more than 150 years ago, the University of the Pacific is one of the oldest surviving academic institutions in California, and has grown into a nationally-ranked powerhouse of the state’s prestigious educational community. The stately campus architecture bears such a strong resemblance to east coast Ivy League schools that is has been used multiple times as a location for college-set Hollywood movies. The independent Janet Leigh Theatre on campus is a popular place for students and non-students alike to catch unusual and offbeat film screenings. The university sits in a suburban section of northern Stockton. The surrounding neighborhoods are full of apartments, condos, and rental houses that offer easy walking access to both the university and the nearby attractions. Just a couple of blocks south of campus, Pacific Avenue is lined with a popular collective of eclectic restaurants, bars, and coffeehouses that serve as perfect hangouts for your off hours. To the north, Sherwood Mall forms the anchor for a large retail center. The nearby waterways are great for outdoor activities like swimming, kayaking, waterskiing, and sailing.
