Frequently Asked Questions Image


Q: Do I have to pay to utilize the Student Rec?
A: Yes. There is a fee of $125.05 ($72.55 for the summer semester) per semester to utilize the Student Rec services. Lakewood and Arvada students (with the exception of online students) will have this fee included in their tuition and fees. Faculty, staff, and online students have the option to opt-in for membership each semester for the same fee. 

Q: I am faculty/staff at RRCC. Can I pay a weekly/monthly membership?
A: Yes. For the fall and spring semesters, the fees are currently $7.82 (weekly) and $31.25 (monthly). Semester membership fees are currently the same as student fees (see question above).

Q: I am an online student (RRCC/CCC Online). Can I use the Student Recreation Center?
A: Yes! RRCC online students may opt-in for the SRC fee ($125.05 per semester) if interested. Unlike students taking classes on-campus, online students are not charged the Student Rec fee automatically. Therefore, you may opt-in by visiting the Cashier's Office.

Q: I want to opt-in for the fee closer to the end of the semester. Does the SRC offer pro-rated rates?
A: 
unfortunately, we do not offer pro-rated rates.

Q: I don't use the Student Recreation Center. Can I opt-out of paying the Student Rec fee?
A: No, you are unable to opt-out of the Student Rec fee or any other student fees at Red Rocks. The fee that students pay is a great investment for many students that utilize the SRC currently and in the future. 

Q: Can Arvada Campus students utilize the Student Rec on the Lakewood Campus?
A: Absolutely! Arvada campus students (with the exception of online students) pay the fee to utilize the facility so we strongly encourage the participation of all Arvada Campus students.

Q: Is there a recreation center on the Arvada Campus?
A: Yes. The Arvada Fitness Center is open to all fee paying members. The $125.05 fee covers membership to both the Student Recreation Center and the Arvada Fitness Center. For more information on the AFC, please visit the page here

Q: Does the SRC offer community memberships?
A: We are not offering outside/community memberships at this time. The facility is only open to current students, faculty and staff members of Red Rocks Community College.

Q: Am I able to bring a guest with me to the Student Rec if I am a fee paying member (current student/faculty/staff) of the SRC?
A: Yes. Guest passes are $7.00 per person and are only valid for the day of purchase (day pass). The SRC is now accepting payment for guest passes at the SRC Service Desk. We accept all major credit/debit cards - no cash, check, or money orders. All guest members must be with an affiliated, fee paying SRC member in order to gain entry. SRC members are allowed up to two (2) guests per day. 

Q: What do I need to enter/utilize the facility?
A: We ask that all fee paying members bring their Red Rocks student/faculty/staff ID card in order to gain access the facility. Members can receive access to the facility 2-times per semester without a ID card, however members will need to present their S-Number and a valid form of ID (i.e. state license, etc.) in order to gain entry. Access will not be granted if a valid Red Rocks ID card is not present prior to entry. This ID should be present for every entry.

Q: How much does it cost to join a group fitness class?
A: All group fitness classes are included in the SRC membership fee. In other words, there is no additional fee to join Group Fitness classes. As long as you have a current membership to utilize the Student Rec, you may attend any and all Group Fitness classes. Please bring your student ID card to check-in to classes.

Q: If I have a academic class in the Student Rec, do I still have to check in at the SRC Service Desk?
A: Yes. This is a requirement to enter the facility. All students must bring their Student ID to enter the Student Rec. Entry without proper check-in can be considered as trespassing. 

Q: Are both the SRC and Arvada Fitness Center closed when the campuses are also closed (i.e. holidays, inclement weather, etc.)?
A: Yes. Whenever there is a campus closure (whether one campus or both), the SRC and AFC are also closed.
