How do I open my UCard Debit Account?
To open a UCard Debit Account, you must submit a completed UCard Debit Account application form. Paper forms are available at the UCard Office, and online and downloadable applications are available on the UCard web site. If you are under 18 years of age, you must also have a parent/guardian sign the form. Students: All students fill out debit applications when they receive their initial UCards. Staff and NENS: All staff and NENS are given debit account applications when they receive their initial UCards. Applying for a UCard Debit Account is optional. Others: Visitors, guests, and others who do not qualify for a UCard can still obtain a Debit Account by purchasing a Guest Card from one of the several Value Transfer Stations (VTS) located on campus. You do not need to submit a debit application to purchase one of these cards. However, they have several drawbacks to UCard Debit Accounts: • Guest cards are anonymous. If you lose or damage your guest card, the funds on that card are lost.
