Memberships

Campus Recreation is proud to open the doors of the Student Recreation Center to the SFA community. Whether you are SFA Faculty/Staff or SFA Alumni, we have membership options for you. Check out the information listed below or stop by the Student Recreation Center Administration Office for more details.

Membership Eligibility Policies

All patrons must have a Validated SFA I.D. before becoming a member of the facility. Validated SFA I.D. can be purchased at the I.D. Office in the Student Center for $5.

We have changed the way we do Memberships! All membership fees, except students taking on campus classes are broken down by a monthly basis. You may choose to join as many or as few months as you like when joining. Memberships must be paid in full upon becoming a member unless payment is through payroll deduction. A member joining after the 15th of the month will be prorated to $15.
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 paychecks. 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.

     

    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.

    Alumni

    Stephen F. Austin State University Alumni Association members are eligible to purchase a regular membership.  Alumni memberships are capped at 100 at any one time so hurry in for your chance to join.  Proof of current Alumni Association member status is required for membership.

    Spouse of Faculty/Staff and Students

    Student Recreation Center members may sponsor their spouse to become a member of the Student Recreation Center. Documentation is required to verify sponsorship eligibility. Spouses are allowed to join without the employee joining, but the sponsor must be present as indicated above for verification.

    Dependents

    Dependents 5-15 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian member to access the facility. These dependents must have the sponsor present at all times while they are in the facility. Dependents 5-15 years of age are only allowed to use the facility during Family Hours, which are defined as Friday, 5 p.m. through Midnight, Sunday.

    A dependent 16 years of age may use the facility without the sponsor being present.  They may also use any part of the facility any time during regular business hours, regular hours Fall & Spring semesters, both Summer semesters, or any time that classes are not in session (break periods).
