BruinCard

The UCLA BruinCard serves many purposes and the convenience of all the included features makes it a must-have necessity! The BruinCard is your University ID card in addition to serving as your library card (when activated at the UCLA Library), and allows access to recreation facilities, University buildings that you have access to, laundry facilities, and can be used as a debit card for purchases at UCLA food facilities, ASUCLA stores, and a few off campus merchants.
