Student Memberships
Students taking one or more credit hours automatically become a member of the Student Recreation Center when they register for classes and pay their fees. Students use their SFA I.D. to access the amenities of the Student Recreation Center. Students who enroll in classes but withdraw later from the university will be reimbursed for their recreation fees according to the refund policy in the General Bulletin. This membership is valid for an entire semester paid until the first day of classes for the next semester.
NEW! Students taking only online classes have their Student Recreation Center Fee waived by the University; therefore, they must purchase a “Student” membership for access to the Student Recreation Center.
Faculty/Staff
SFA faculty and staff are eligible to purchase a Student Recreation Center membership. Employees must secure a SFA I.D. card that indicates their employment status prior to completing their membership application at the Student Recreation Center.

All Memberships are good for the current semester until the first day of classes for the next semester. For example, a staff person with a membership for Summer II has privileges until the start of the Fall semester.
Memberships must be paid in full upon becoming a member unless payment is through payroll deduction. Any individual purchasing a membership after the semester begins will be charged the full rate until the halfway point of the semester. After that point, the membership fee will be prorated by 50% until the beginning of the next semester.
Payroll deduction is only available for employees who receive a paycheck all 12 months of the year. Your paycheck will be deducted on a monthly basis until you terminate your membership. Members who terminate their membership before the 15th of each month will receive a reimbursement of $15 for the remaining month’s membership.
Members who are paying through payroll deduction must pay their first month up front. After the first month, payments for membership will be taken directly from their pay checks. The first month payment will be $30 until the 16th of each month, where it will be prorated to $15 until the end of the month.
