    • Fall: July 1 through December 30 (unless an observed University holiday)
    • Spring: January 2 (unless an observed University holiday) - June 30
    Undergraduate Students

    All undergraduate students should be assessed a Recreation Fee through their Bursar Account at the start of each academic semester. This fee grants access to recreation facilities, programs, services and digital resources once they are actively enrolled in the coming semester. Enrollment in Study Abroad opportunities will not assess a Rec Fee to a student's account.

    If undergraduate students do not see this fee in their Bursar Account, they should reach out to the Bursar's Office directly to inquire further. Undergraduate students should never purchase a Membership out of pocket through MyRec unless explicitly instructed to do so after consulting with the Bursar and/or Rec & P.E.

      Graduate & Professional Students

      Graduate and Professional students in years 1 - 5 should be assessed a Recreation Fee through their Bursar Account at the start of each academic semester. This fee grants access to recreation facilities, programs, services and digital resources once they are actively enrolled in the coming semester.

      Ph.D. students in years 6+ who wish to have the Recreation Fee assessed to them should utilize the opt-in button on DukeHub to have the fee applied to their Bursar Account. Access will begin for these students as of the next business day after they opt-into the Rec Fee. Graduate and Professional students should never purchase a Membership out of pocket through MyRec unless explicitly instructed to do so after consulting with the Bursar and/or Rec & P.E.

      Duke Health Staff as well as Duke Faculty and Staff that have 9- or 12-month contracts may purchase a Rec & P.E. Membership. Starting prices are noted below and will prorate throughout the term. Prorated prices will self-reflect in MyRec. Monthly Memberships do not prorate.
