Obtaining a UCR Card

To get your UCR Card, come to the UCR Card Office located in the University Commons, Suite 249. You will be asked to fill out an application and sign that you have read and understand the provisions of the UCR Card Agreement (Click here to view the agreement).   You will also need your Student Identification Number (SID) or Employee Identification Number (EID).  For your protection we do not use Social Security Numbers.

You will need to show us a photo ID (Driver's License, etc.) so we can verify who you are before we can produce your UCR Card. We will then take your picture and produce your card right on the spot. The whole process takes about 3 to 5 minutes and you will walk away with your new UCR Card. Remember to sign up at your Residence Hall for meal plans and Dining Dollars to take advantage of the convenience of your new card. And, you can deposit money into your 'Bear Bucks' account for purchases around the campus. Simply log in to My Card Account to put money into your account.

If you have had a UCR Card before, you will have to pay the $20 replacement fee to get a new card. For Staff and Faculty, you have the option to pay the replacement fee with cash, check, credit/debit card. For students, you will be automatically billed for this cost on your monthly student bill.

Call (951) UCR-Card for more information.
