Student Access Card

The Student Access card is your:
- Official College Photo ID Card
- Regional Transit Pass Card
- College Library Card
- GoPrint Card
- Discount Card at participating stores

Official College Photo ID
Your Student Access card is your official college ID card. Use it to get into college sports events and other college activities where student identification is required.

College Library Card
Student Access card is your College Library card. It has a bar code which you activate by presenting your card at the library circulation counter. You should activate your card as soon as possible so you can access the online library databases and services that are available from off-campus. You will need to update your library account at the circulation counter each semester you are enrolled.

GoPrint Card
You can use your Student Access card to make photo copies or prints at any GoPrint station at any college in the Los Rios District. To activate the debit stripe on the back of your card, insert it into any vend/revalue GoPrint station and deposit the amount of value (minimum $1.00) you wish to put on the card. Additional value may be added to the debit stripe any time thereafter. If you still have money on a former Los Rios GoPrint card, you can continue to use that card until the value is spent by going to a Revalue Station and inserting your card to reactivate it.

Access to Public Transit
Students approved a Universal Transit Pass fee which allows students to use all public transit bus and light rail systems in Sacramento, Yolo, Folsom, El Dorado and Elk Grove at a greatly reduced rate. Your Student Access card is your transit pass and it is good seven days a week from August 1 through December 31 and from January 1 through May 31. This is an incredible bargain.

Enrolling in the college solely for the purpose of obtaining a discounted UTP pass is dishonest and is a violation of the District’s policies.

Discount Card
Some stores and merchants offer discounts to our students. Use your Student Access card to prove you qualify for the discount.

Where to pick up your Student Access card:
- On the Folsom campus, go to the Computer Lab in the Aspen Hall/FL1 building
- At the El Dorado Center, go to the Computer Lab in the “C” building (room C-204)
- At the Rancho Cordova Center, ask at the front counter
