Visiting Scholars and Visiting Student Researchers 

Requests to appoint a Visiting Scholar (VS) or Visiting Student Researcher (VSR) must be received by the Chair and staff at least 6 months prior to the intended start date. Before agreeing to sponsor a visitor, please email rfahacademichr@berkeley.edu(link sends e-mail). Sponsors must be current full-time department faculty. Faculty who will be on sabbatical or research leave should not agree to sponsor individuals during their leave. Visitors might be doing their own research, but are required to check in and have access to their sponsor throughout their time at Berkeley.

Officially appointed visitors will have access to a campus CalNet ID card, a campus email address, and access to all campus library facilities. 

Visitors are required to pay a university services fee(link is external) and a visa processing fee(link is external).

Please note: If a recent grad needs library access, a library card might work for their needs. It's available to both community members and alumni (though the extent of their access may be limited). See the Library's page about library cards for non-UCB patrons.
