In an ongoing effort to provide opportunities to keep (or get!) fit and meet local residents, AUR has a partnership with a successful and popular local gym (palestra) that allows its students to use its facilities and participate in classes at a special discounted rate.
AUR provides free gym memberships for full-time degree-seeking students and English Language Program students. All other AUR students are eligible for discounted membership that they can purchase or renew each semester directly at the gym.
