To be eligible for the UB card you must hold valid enrolment for more than two months of the current academic year.
To obtain your digital card, simply follow these steps:
- Download the SocUB app (for Android and iOS) or access SocUB online.
- Access the app and select the student profile.
- Log in with your UB username and password (the same details you use for MónUB).
- Use the Card function to display your card whenever you need it.
What should I do if I can't log in?
If you can't remember your username or password, consult the MónUB help.
What should I do if I can't see my photograph?
The photograph appearing on your digital student card and in your personal profile for other University of Barcelona services is part of your identification as a member of the University community. It should therefore be clearly displayed and kept up to date.
To upload your photograph, go to FotoUB.
If you need more information, check the support page.
Your card is valid until 30 November of the academic year.
It is renewed automatically when you enrol for the following academic year.
How do I change my personal details?
You should contact the Secretary's Office for Students and Teaching Staff at your faculty or school to notify them of any changes.
Who should I contact if I have any other question?
You can send an email to the UB Card office.
