ACCESS Cards
Other Pages In Student Services
The ACCESS Card is a full-color UCSB Student ID/Debit Card. It is used
as proof of registration and to gain entrance into numerous student
services. These include on-campus dining commons, Davidson Library, the
computer lab, and the Recreation Center. It also allows free entry to
athletic events and free rides on the local bus system. Students may
opt to make a deposit to their card and use it as a debit card where
purchases are automatically deducted from the balance in their account.
ACCESS is accepted at the UCSB Bookstore, campus dining and food
outlets, the UCen Post Office, A.S. Notetaking/Cashier’s, Student
Health and Parking Services as well as select off-campus businesses.
The ACCESS Card has a one-time processing fee of $20 and is replaced
free of charge if damaged for any reason. Students may opt for a free
black and white UCSB Student ID Card that has limited uses. There is a
$5 replacement fee if it is damaged for any reason. Both cards have a
$20 replacement fee if lost.
