Wellness and athletics

Engage your body and mind.

Your well-being is our priority. That means you’ll have plenty to do and see on campus, as well as the resources you need to stay healthy.

Get active.

We like to work and play hard. Our recreation center features more than 100,000 square feet of space including multipurpose and racquetball courts; cardio and strength training rooms; a three-lane track; boxing, plyometric and TRX rooms; and numerous other amenities.

Drop in at one of our group fitness classes, take part in our intramural sports or try one of our more than 20 sports clubs to get fit with friends. Archery, dodgeball, figure skating, roller hockey, lacrosse, table tennis — you name it, we’ve got it.

Around here, we’re all about cheering one another on, and our NCAA Division I Huskie athletes give us plenty to cheer about. We make it easier than ever to show your Huskie spirit with free admission to our home games. Health services.

Northwestern Medicine, one of the top medical systems in the nation, provides high-quality medical care in our Student Health Center. Experienced, skilled and compassionate medical staff provide walk-in health care like that of an immediate care facility, and can refer students to specialists within the vast Northwestern Medicine system if needed.
