How to Receive Your URO Number

After purchasing your membership, please complete the URO Membership Qualtrics Survey as soon as possible. The survey should take approximately 2–3 minutes to complete.

When completing the survey:

• Enter the same email address you used when purchasing your membership through Showpass. You will not receive your URO number if the email addresses do not match.
• Enter your Showpass invoice id as confirmation of payment
• Your invoice id can be found in the confirmation email in the Receipt pdf

Once you have completed the survey, you can expect to receive your URO number within 24–48 hours. We will do our best to send it as soon as possible. Please keep your URO number in a secure place, as you will need it to access all URO membership-based programs and events.

If you do not receive your URO number within 48 hours, or if you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at uro.ubc@gmail.com. You can also talk to us at Clubs Day.

Important Information About REX

Getting a URO membership+REX ($10) does not guarantee that you will become a REX mentee. REX is a competitive program, and all prospective REX mentees must apply through the REX application form. If accepted, you will be matched with a mentor to participate in the program.

For all REX-related questions, please contact our REX Chairs at rex.uro.ubc@gmail.com.

We look forward to having you as part of URO!
