If students wish to use the Recreation Center on campus, they may purchase a membership each semester at the Recreation Center for approximately $175 per semester with cash or check only.  Summer memberships are not available to Spoon River College students.

The above charges are basic and for one semester only and do not cover any incidentals the student may incur. Different room type and meal plans will be at a higher cost. One-fourth of total charges ( pre-payment ) are due with a $50 non-refundable contract processing fee (for new contracts) when application is submitted . Additional payments of that same amount will be due 8/28/23, 9/28/23 and 10/28/23. Any remaining balance must be paid by 11/28/23.  A new contract addendum and pre-pay is required each semester. A finance charge will be assessed to the student’s account on the unpaid balance after the established billing dates.

If a student wishes to avoid finance charges, he/she may pay the entire balance of the student account before 8/28/23.
