Credit/Non-Credit options
Undergraduate students may take classes for credit through the registrar for .5 units per semester. In addition undergraduate students, graduate students and employees of the University may sign up for classes (when space is available) on a non-credit basis through the Campus Recreation office. All non-credit classes have a required fee, and enrollment into the class will only be accepted after credit registration has ceased (usually the first day of the undergraduate semester).

Our goal for your experience
Recreation classes are designed for the entire campus community at USD. Classes provide students with opportunities to learn new skills and activities, to increase physical strength and fitness, and to provide a balance in daily life. By introducing and encouraging these activities, we hope that you will develop a life-long interest in health and fitness.

How to sign-up
If you are an undergraduate student and would like to take a class for credit, you must go through the registrar to sign up for a class.

All non-credit registration, whether you are an undergraduate student, graduate students, alumni (with pass), or staff may sign up for non credit through the Campus Recreation web site. All non credit classes have a required fee and enrollment into the class will only be accepted after credit registration has ceased (usually the first day of the undergraduate semester).

Class Fees

Many of the recreation classes have additional fees. For students enrolling for credit, these fees are charged to your student account (except for Mission Bay Aquatic Center courses and SCUBA classes. You must pay MBAC/SCUBA prior to taking a class). For students enrolling for non credit you must pay the fee when signing up for the class at the Campus recreation office.

Adding a Recreation Class
Recreation Classes fill quickly. Students desiring to take a class for non credit must wait until the first day of classes to sign up for the class. Priority is given to students taking a class for credit. If a class is full a student (both credit and non credit) must obtain permission from the instructor to add. Students taking a class for credit must sign up by the published add deadline.

Dropping a Recreation Class
Students taking a class for credit must follow registrar procedures for dropping a class. Recreation class fees are not prorated. Students who drop their class by the add deadline and never attend a class may have their class fee refunded. The request must be made the same semester as the student was enrolled in the class. The student must request this refund through the Campus Recreation Director. There are no fee refunds for students taking a class for non-credit.
