Exploiting the Merrill Land Grant Act, the California Legislature secured an Agricultural, Mining, and Mechanical Arts College in 1866.[5] Meanwhile, Congregational priest Henry Durant, a former student of Yale, had made the private Contra Coats Academy, on June 20, 1853, in Oakland, California. The beginning site was limited by Twelfth and Fourteenth Streets and Harrison and Franklin Streets in downtown Oakland. Thus, the Trustees of the Contra Costa Academy were allowed a contract on April 13, 1855, for a College of California. State Historical Plaque No. 45 imprints the site of the College of California at the northeast corner of Thirteenth and Franklin Streets in Oakland. Trusting both to grow and raise subsidizes, the College of California's trustees shaped the College Homestead Association and obtained 160 sections of land (650,000 m²) of area in what is presently Berkeley in 1866. At the same time offers of new estates missed the mark. Representative Frederick Low supported the foundation of a state college based upon the University of Michigan plan, and subsequently in one sense may be viewed as the author of the University of California.
In 1867, he proposed a merger of the current College of California with the proposed state college. On October 9, 1867, the College's trustees reluctantly consented to consolidation with the state school further bolstering their shared good fortune, yet under one condition—that there not be just a "Rural, Mining, and Mechanical Arts College", yet a complete college, inside which the College of California would turn into the College of Letters (now the College of Letters and Science). In like manner, the Organic Act, creating the University of California, was marked into law by Governor Henry H. Height (Low's successor) on March 23, 1868. The University of California's second president, Daniel Colt Oilman, opened the Berkeley grounds in September 1873. Prior that year, To land Medical College in San Francisco had consented to turn into the University's "Restorative Department"; it later developed into UCSF. In 1878, the University built Hastings College of the Law in San Francisco as its first graduate school.

In 1944, the previous Santa Barbara State College—renamed UC Santa Barbara—turned into the third general-instruction grounds of the University of California framework. In 1905, the Legislature secured a "College Farm School" at Davis and in 1907 a "Citrus Experiment Station" at Riverside as extras to the College of Agriculture at Berkeley.
In 1959, the Legislature advanced the "Ranch" and "Examination Station" to the rank of general grounds, making, separately, UC Davis and UC Riverside. In 1932, Will Keith Kellogg gave his Arabian stallion farm in Pomona, California, to the University of California framework. On the other hand, the area remained to a great extent unused and possession was exchanged to the California State University framework in 1949.
