Base and Post Access for Civilian Students
by Kathleen McCoy |
Classes on base and on post require special access permits. Attending classes offered
at these locations is a privilege extended by the base and post to UAA students.
Students are reminded they are entering military installations during a time of war.
Compliance with all directions of the Army Military Police and the Air Force Security
Forces is required while on any installation.
Elmendorf Air Force Base and Fort Richardson require the following for vehicles driven
on the installations:
1. Drivers license, current insurance card, current registration. These are the
same items required by the State of Alaska to legally drive a vehicle.
2. Students at Fort Richardson can stop at the main gate Visitors Center to obtain
a pass for each night of class. To obtain a semester long pass, students must contact
the UAA office at Fort Richardson prior to the start of semester to complete the base
access form. These forms take up to three weeks to process. Call 428-1228 for additional
information.
3. Students at Elmendorf Air Force Base are added to the base access list one day
prior to the start of class. For the first class, stop at the Visitors Center at the
Boniface Parkway Gate. Students will be issued a temporary pass. Allow plenty of time
to obtain the pass on the first day. To obtain a semester pass, students must go to
the Pass and ID Office in the People Center on Sijan Avenue between 7 am and 3 pm
any weekday. Directions are available at the Visitors Center and maps are provided
at the UAA Elmendorf Office, 753-0204.
4. Base access is provided only to registered students. Students may not bring
additional civilians on the base. If a student needs to obtain a ride to class on
the base, only other students with base access or those holding appropriate military
ID may escort them.
5. Base and Post access is granted only to attend classes at the base and post
education centers.
