Activity classes have the same programming as credit classes, but they are not taken for credit.
Activity classes allow you to balance activity with your busy schedule, and create accountability with instructors and a group to help you stay consistently active. Assignments and attendance are not required as they are with credit classes.
Registration
Search for available classes on the class schedule.
Priority registration for activity classes takes place online through RecWeb the week before academic course registration. If you know what activity class you want to join and want to ensure your spot, this is your best option.
Between priority registration closing and the first day of the new term, you may fill out the Request to Enroll form to be added to a class if space is available.
You may also visit an activity class during the first week of each term to request instructor approval to be added to the class.
Faculty, staff, and community members are welcome to register for activity classes. Rec Center membership or facility access is required in order to participate in activity classes held in the Rec. If you register on Duckweb for a PE class, you will be charged all associated students fees. Be sure to use the above process for non-credit participation in PE activity classes.
In order to drop your activity class, email SRC@uoregon.edu. Refunds are issued according to the university's refund schedule.
Accessibility
Students of all abilities are welcome to participate in Physical Education courses. Students can work with the Accessible Education Center (AEC) and instructors for appropriate accommodations. The AEC can assist students in finding an aide or interpreter if needed to participate in PE courses. PE and Rec will waive the course fee for the aide. Contact Chantelle Russell for further information.
Fees
Activity classes cost $105.
Some classes such as scuba and outdoor pursuits require additional fees for gear, transportation, and certification. Activity classes are assessed a fee because they are not funded by tuition and general fees. Class fees cover the cost of instruction, equipment, administration, and facility maintenance.
