The Reily Student Recreation Center is first and foremost, a location for students to recreate, work and grow. Administered by Tulane's Department of Campus Recreation, we operate differently than a private gym in the following ways:
- We periodically close and have altered hours of operation due to University sporting events, holiday breaks, and necessary maintenance projects that must be completed outside of the semester terms.
- We periodically host tournaments and special events that will impact the availability of certain spaces in the facility.
- We regularly reserve space for varsity athletics programs, club sports, and intramural sports.
- Most positions in the building are staffed by Tulane students. We are dedicated to providing a safe and positive work environment that prepares these individuals for life after Tulane. Disrespectful behavior will not be tolerated.
Facility Access
- For the safety and security of our members, you must have your Splash Card or Key Tag to access the facility. Individuals using a key tag must have a photo in our system or present a second form of photo identification for each entry. We will allow you one exception per semester if you can provide another form of identification. Subsequent occurrences of a forgotten Splash Card or Key Tag will require the purchase of a daily pass with membership verification. Lax security leads to an overcrowded gym and increased occurrences of theft and undesirable behavior. We take security seriously to ensure a positive experience for paying members.
Lost Splash Cards can be replaced in the Card Services office. Lost Key Tags can be replaced at the Member Services desk for $5.
Membership Categories:
Tulane University recently released a comprehensive plan identifying measures necessary to support the health and safety of the Tulane community when we return to campus this fall for on-ground teaching, learning, living and working. This plan will require significant modifications to our normal operations. These changes are necessary in order to protect the health of the members of our academic community, as well as the health of our neighbors.
To safely fulfill this mission, Campus Recreation must, regrettably, limit Reily Student Recreation Center membership and access to Tulane University affiliates only. These changes affect the following membership types (click links for detailed information): Community Memberships, Early Bird Memberships, and Silver Sneakers Memberships.
Assessed Students
- Individuals who have been assessed a Recreation Center Fee on their tuition bill upon enrolling for the current semester have automatic access. Assessment criteria vary by school. To check your status, click here. You will find various hyperlinks linking to PDFs of tuition fee tables based on your student status (full-time undergraduate, graduate, SoPA, etc). Select the table specific to you to view fees.
Voluntary Students
- Tulane students who are not automatically assessed a Recreation Center Fee as part of their tuition bill but choose to purchase a membership.
