Medical Services provides free flu shots for CU Boulder students in a variety of locations on campus during the flu season. Staff are unable to provide flu vaccines to CU Boulder staff and faculty.
An annual seasonal flu vaccine is the best way to help protect against flu. Flu vaccination can reduce flu illnesses, doctors’ visits, and missed work and school due to flu, as well as prevent flu-related hospitalizations.
The Be Fit Pass gives you unlimited access to more than 30 group fitness classes every week!
You must have/purchase a Rec Center membership prior to purchasing your Be Fit Pass. Semester passes for the Student Recreation Center and Williams Village Recreation Center can be purchased online. All other passes must be purchased in person at the Student Recreation Center Guest Services desk.
