University Recreation - Ferris State University

Membership and Fees

We welcome your interest in membership at the Student Recreation Center. We are dedicated to providing quality services for all patrons but wish to emphasize that meeting the needs of students is our top priority. Concern for recreational programming space for students guides the policies that govern membership recruitment. Thank you for showing your support for this principle by respecting the policies that govern eligibility for membership. We hope you will value your membership as we value serving your recreational needs.
