About

As a student of the University of Ottawa, your gym membership is payed through the ancillary fees of your tuition. This means you get access to both our Montpetit and Sports Complex gym facilities when you register for a semester of school. If you are registered part-time or full-time for both the fall and winter semesters of school, you will have access to both the facilities. If you take a semester off, or are a Coop internship, you will not have access to the gym facilities and will be required to either purchase a day pass or a membership in order to be able to use the facilities
