Student services

The International Student Resource Center (ISRC) supports and promotes the success, wellness and personal growth of the international students through expert advising, intercultural programming and advocacy. We create a safe and welcoming environment that respects cultural diversity and fosters intercultural skills and communication across campus. All UCR students are welcome to get involved with our intercultural programs! We are also happy to assist faculty and staff who are exploring ways to support our growing international student population.

Housing services

Our three housing options, Residence Halls, UCR Campus Apartments and Family Housing provide you with a convenient, student-centered environment to complement university education. With zero commute, friends next door and plenty of recreational activities happening down the hall or in the next building over, you are in the center of the action. Plus, UCR Police and on-duty Residential Life staff provide 24-hour assistance and are committed to delivering a safe and secure environment.When the campus is at your doorstep, the only thing you need to do is step outside.

Library services

Our collections contain more than 3.5 million print books, nearly 500,000 e-books, and 143,000 serials. We also provide access to hundreds of databases and state-of-the-art information technology. Our distinctive subject collections include the Eaton Collection of Science Fiction & Fantasy, the Water Resources Collections & Archives, the Rupert Costo Library of the American Indian, etc.

Medical services

As a student, you are automatically enrolled in UCR's Student Health Insurance Program (SHIP) and exempt from purchasing a plan on the Covered CA website or your home state exchange. SHIP meets the requirements of the Affordable Care Act, gives you nationwide coverage, and offers the big advantage of convenient, on-campus care.
