Love the climbing wall here it has courses and routes for all skill level. The pool and lockers rooms are rather dirty and sometimes smell absolutely awful. The lifting area upstairs is wayyyy too small for the amount of student UIC has. It is consistently packed and if you want to lift you're going to have to wait for a machine to be available. The workers are nice usually and the smoothie bar is very good but expensive.

Pretty good rec center. Have yet to fully explore all that it has to offer, but happy with the weight room setup. Can't wait to catch Sparky at the gym!

Hello. We usually do have this service. However due to COVID restrictions currently in place, we cannot allow indoor eating or reservations in the pool. Our Climbing Wall is also still closed. These three are our main party attractions. Should you have interest in pursuing a party still, please visit our webpage rec.uic.edu for more information on the reservation request. Thank you!

Do i need to be a student or member to get food from tropical smoothie cafe?

You do not! We still require a government issued ID to enter the facility but you're welcome to come in for a 15 minute pass to order from Tropical Smoothie Cafe.

Can outside people like people who dont go to the school still come in there and hoop too or no?

You need to take the membership to access the Recreation facility where as the Outdoor field complex (A unit of UIC campus recreation)on 900 W 14th place has a jogging path and fitness station which is open to people in the neighborhood.

are group fitness classes cancelled this week?

It might be because the 2nd floor and MAC gymnasium rooms have been temporarily closed from today (16th March) onwards.

I am living off-campus. Can UIC help me rent an exercise equipment?

S B | Oct 10, 2020
UIC Student Recreation Facility | Oct 10, 2020

Full-fee paying students living on or off campus may use the equipment within our facilities with your membership. Unfortunately we are not able to assist with equipment outside of our facility.

Hello! Here are options for your faculty/ staff membership. https://recreation.uic.edu/memberships/campus-recreation-memberships/faculty-staff-memberships/ We do offer several aquatics classes. Group and Private Learn to Swim Lessons are available as well as Aqua Fusion and Aqua Pilates. All of these options are based on registration and have already began for the semester. They will be available again in the Spring. Stop by our membership desk for more information!

What would be the best time to visit the gym for swimming? Trying to avoid going there during the rush hour, so trying to see if people have any suggestions about what would be a less busy time to visit for swimming? TIA!
