Membership

Use of the Wellness & Recreation Center (WRC) and other FIU recreation facilities, as well as the programs and services offered by the center, are available to FIU students and employees. Certain affiliates are also eligible.

FIU Students

Currently-enrolled FIU students with up-to-date payment of the Activity and Services (A&S) Fee are automatically WRC members, pay no additional membership fee, and are permitted to participate in activities and use WRC facilities, services, and programs. Some programs and services do require additional payment.

1. Employees may purchase a WRC Membership either on an annual or semester basis or through payroll deduction.

2. Only employees receiving full benefits are eligible for payroll deduction. Employees must show proof of eligibility (ex. pay stub) to purchase a membership.

3. Temporary OPS employees are not eligible for payroll deduction and are limited to semester and yearly membership only.

Please stop by the WRC Front Desk to fill out your Membership application!
