Students not enrolled for the summer semester, but enrolled for the fall semester may purchase a summer membership for $125 at the Customer Service Desk. Students wanting to purchase a summer membership must verify their fall enrollment by providing a printed fall schedule under the course enrollment page.
- These students must verify enrollment for the fall semester before they will be allowed to purchase the summer membership and must sign a waiver for the summer semester.
- Incoming students are eligible for this membership. Class registration or an NDSU acceptance letter is acceptable for verification.
Staff/Faculty
Currently employed NDSU staff/faculty or retired employees with an appropriate retired NDSU ID are eligible to purchase a membership at the Wellness Center.
