Affiliates, Visiting Scholars and Non-Salaried Positions
To Qualify
If you are not a UCR student or employee, you still may be eligible to obtain an R'Card for campus identification purposes and/or to access university services.
- Visiting Scholars must be sponsored by a department to receive an R'Card. Ask the department administrator who processes J-1 visas, or who oversees on-boarding, to fill out and submit a Request Form using the button below.
- Form Must Be Completed By Department Administrator
After the department completes the request form, the card office staff will instruct you to provide all five items in one email. Type in the subject line: UCR OTHERS CARD. Please see email instructions on this page.
Payment: There is an R'Card fee. Departments can arrange to pay the fee via campus recharge. Individuals may pay the fee with a credit card online or in person at the Highlander Service Station. We accept MasterCard, Visa, and Discover.
