Establish and maintain an active and healthy lifestyle when you take advantage of the fitness and recreational sports facilities available to the Northwestern community. For students who want to lose weight and get in shape, unwind from the stress of daily life, or simply have a bit of fun, the Department of Athletics and Recreation offers facilities suited to meet your needs. Students, faculty, staff, alumni, and affiliates are encouraged to make use of various fitness and recreation-related facilities. Use of these facilities is free to current full-time students who have a valid WildCARD ID. Others must possess a facility membership or purchase a daily pass.
