INTRODUCTION

The AS Cashiers and Ticket Office offers a variety of services to the UCSB Campus ranging from event tickets to emergency loans. For information about on-campus events and to purchase tickets, click here.

TICKETS

The Associated Students Cashiers and Ticket Office is currently the centralized ticketing hub at UCSB for Athletic Events as well as the Associated Students Program Board, the Multi-Cultural Center, the Department of Music, the Department of Theater and Dance, and student events. This past year AS Program Board celebrated Halloween with Delirium and the beginning of Spring with The Warm Up. The Harlem Globetrotters put on a successful exhibition in February at the Thunderdome and Men’s Soccer made it to the first round of the NCAA Division I playoffs.

For presenters, the ticketing process all starts with the UCSB Events site, events.ucsb.edu. This is a campus wide calendar of events. Once the presenter’s event is entered and registered on that website, a Ticket Office representative will reach out to arrange the details.

The Cashiers and Ticket Office also sells discounted theme park tickets to Disneyland, Knotts Berry Farm, Universal Studios, Legoland, Seaworld, Six Flags Magic Mountain, Raging Waters and the San Diego Zoo.

The local Metro Movie Theaters chain offers two types of tickets through the ticket office, also at a discount.

AS PUBLICATIONS CLASSROOM READERS AND LECTURE NOTES

Along with on-campus ticketing, the AS Cashiers and Ticket Office also sells class readers and lecture notes printed by AS Publications.

SANTA BARBARA MTD BUS PASSES

Registered students can pick up their Santa Barbara MTD bus stickers at the ticket office’s side window. The passes allow students to ride all city busses for free. The program is funded by students through a campus-wide lock-in. Students negotiate with MTD regarding the cost and give feedback regarding routes that are most useful to students. The lock-in must be reaffirmed every 4 years.

iCLICKER PROGRAM

In Spring of this year the Ticket Office began rolling out a new product, iClicker rentals, brought to them by the AS Controller’s Office. An iClicker is a small device used in some classes that allows professors and students to interact, respond to survey questions and aid in group participation. These devices can cost Students up to $40 and will often only be used for one or two classes during their college career. With this new program students will be able to borrow an iClicker from the ticket office for one semester, avoiding a potentially costly investment in a device with little functionality beyond classroom use. The pilot program this year was not revenue generating. The iClickers were borrowed for free. Future iterations of the program may involve a nominal fee.

EMERGENCY LOANS

AS offers emergency loans to undergraduates of up to $600 per quarter at the Cashiers and Ticket Office windows. The loans are interest free, but an AS administrative processing fee of five dollars as well as a BARC office charge of ten dollars per loan application is assessed. Students can receive one loan per quarter and they are available to all eligible applicants during all academic quarters. Reference the chart below for loan amounts.
