Your Ticket To: service The Student Recreation Center not only caters to SFA students, but the SFA community as well. Whether you are SFA Faculty/Staff, SFA Alumni, or spouse, we have membership options for you. Check out the information listed or stop by the Student Recreation Center Administration Office for more details.

MEMBER SERVICES • You can purchase a membership for as little as one month or as many months at a time as you wish. Membership costs must be paid in full when signing up, unless signed up for payroll deduction. • Any member who chooses to cancel their membership is entitled to a refund of the remaining months left on their membership. To receive a $15 reimbursement for the month, you must cancel on/before the 15th of that month. Any cancellations after the 15th of the month will not be reimbursed for that month. All cancellations must be made in writing. • Payroll deduction is only available for employees (and their families) who receive a paycheck from SFA all 12 months of the year. Your paycheck will be deducted on a monthly basis until you terminate your membership. Payroll deduction cancellations must occur before the last week of the month to avoid a deduction for the next month.

• 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 after the 15th of each month, where it will be prorated to $15 until the end of the month. • 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.
