YMCA Graduate Student Wellness Pass

Taking classes, conducting research, working, marking papers – being a graduate student can mean less time moving and more time sitting. To help make it easier and more accessible to move more this semester, the Physical Activity Office has teamed up with the YWCA to offer a discounted Graduate Student Wellness Pass.  

Up until February 9th, UBC Vancouver graduate students can register for a Student Wellness Pass at the YMCA and they will be partially reimbursed by the UBC Physical Activity Office.

The pass includes: 
  • 4-month, semester pass pro-rated to purchase date (regular price $99.00. See below for payment details)
  • 10 guest passes per year
  • Waived registration fees ($50 regular price)
  • Access to all YMCA's across Vancouver, including all fitness programming, equipment, pool facilities and orientation. 

Cost is due upon registration and is non-refundable after 15 days. The current semester pass ends April 30. Valid student ID is required. 

Payment Details

Register at the YMCA. 

The UBC Physical Activity Office will partially subsidize this pass for eligible graduate students. Students will pay the full, pro-rated cost of the pass to the YMCA and provide proof of purchase to the GSS for reimbursement of $25.00. Please note the pass will be pro-rated depending on purchase date. 

To receive reimbursement, receipts must be submitted to the Graduate Student Society by 4:30 pm on February 29, 2020. Please send them to info@gss.ubc.ca.
