I lost my UCARD, what should I do?

Because your UCARD contains all of the necessary membership information, you will need to replace your UCARD in order to return and workout in the Centers.

You can request a refund up to 14 days after you purchase your membership. If you purchase your membership during the summer you can request a refund until 9/30/07. Keep in mind that refund requests are reviewed by the Program Director before being granted.

You are welcome to come in and look around the Center to see the equipment but we do require you to purchase a membership in order to work out. Remember, you can always request a refund within 14 days of the purchase.

8.

What about the gym in the James Residence Hall?

The gym in James Hall is only for the residents of that building and is not included with a Wellness Center membership. Funding for that gym came from Housing Services and not from other student's Wellness Program membership fees. While the Wellness Program is managing the facility, it is being operated as a separate entity.
