This page outlines the on-boarding requirements in which you must bring in-person to upload to your UCLA BOX Folder before you sign up for your On-Boarding Appointment. Please do NOT attend or sign up an on-boarding appointment if you are missing anything. Email us if you have any questions: CRV@mednet.ucla.edu. NOTE: You will NOT receive an email with a UCLA BOX Folder invite if you did NOT receive an "Approval" email to start the clearance process. 

Please do NOT drop off or email your application packet to our office unless specifically instructed in your "Approval" email. "Approval" emails are required to proceed to the STEP 2.

Forms and Training Certificates must NOT be older than 6 months of your Onboarding Appointment, otherwise you will be asked to reschedule and re-complete them. 

COVID-19 UPDATE: In accordance and support with the campus and health sciences guidelines, please see the following impacts and/or effect:

• On-Boarding will resume remotely, more information will be sent to applicants through Signup.com.
• Tuberculosis (TB) requirement will only be required once the temporary pause is lifted as it is time sensitive and required annually. MMR and Varicella are still required for on-boarding to be completed. 
  • UCLA Students do NOT need to have an ASHE Letter, you may use your medical records instead. 
• All in-person and onsite volunteering are temporarily paused. We are taking this proactive measure for the safety of our volunteers and staff.
