During his time there, Homa won the 2013 NCAA Championship, was a first-team All-American, and was tri-captain of the Bears team which won 11 of 14 tournaments.

Having turned professional a decade ago, Homa's interest in golf developed when he was a young lad, and his father would play a game of golf with him after a busy day. While growing up, he used to play at Vista Valencia Golf Club, where he met his caddie, Joe Greiner, at just the age of 6.

Homa attended Valencia High School in Santa Clarita Valley, where he was a four-time first-team All-Foothill League selection and the 2009 Foothill League MVP, graduating in 2009.

During his time at California-Berkeley, Homa won the 2013 NCAA Championship, was a first-team All-American, and was tri-captain of the Bears team, which won 11 of 14 tournaments.
