Membership Options

The Department of Physical Education and Recreation operates our membership durations, facility hours, and facility closures based on the University Academic Calendar. Information of closures can be found on our detailed facility hours page. Recurring closures each year include, but are not limited to:

  • Weekends during academic break periods (winter break, spring break, pre-summer hours, pre-fall hours)
  • New Year's Day
  • Martin Luther King Jr. Day
  • Memorial Day
  • Juneteenth

  • Veterans Day
  • Thanksgiving Day through the Sunday after Thanksgiving
  • Winter Break (end of fall term through start of winter term)

The Student Recreation Center follows the university academic calendar. All memberships are based on the academic term. Fall, winter, spring, and summer are 10 academic weeks and one finals week, with additional weeks added depending on university break periods. Hours of operation are also based on the academic schedules with closures or shortened hours during finals and break periods.

Due to the increase in student fees, prices will increase beginning with fall 2024 memberships and will be available for purchase in August.
