Campus Recreation Well-Being Fee Waiver

Fee Waiver

Well-Being Fee Waiver Guidelines

The Well-Being Fee Waiver, provided by UC Davis Campus Recreation, aims to support the health, wellness, and equity of our students by making recreational activities more affordable. To ensure the integrity and fairness of our program, we have established the following best practices for using promotional codes. Promo codes are strictly personal and can only be used by the students to whom they were awarded. Policy violations include sharing your code, using the code for a unit not specified in the application, and using your code more than once. Students found in violation of these guidelines may face disqualification from future participation in the Well-Being Fee Waiver program and/or suspension from Campus Recreation programs. Additionally, misuse of promo codes could lead charges on a student's Banner Account or Campus Recreation (Fusion) Account.

WELL-BEING FEE WAIVER APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN FOR YOUTH PROGRAMS ONLY

All other Programs will become available on Monday, March 10th at 9am.
 

The Well-Being Fee Waiver was created by Campus Recreation and allocates funds each quarter to make recreation and wellness opportunities more affordable.

CampDoc profile required- Once you submit your application for the Youth Programs Fee Waiver, you must create a CampDoc account using your UC Davis email address. You can use this link to create your CampDoc account. Please be sure to make profiles for each of your campers who you are planning to attend camp! Awards will be distributed directly to your CampDoc account. If you do not have one when it is time for awards distribution, you will not be able to receive the funds and will forfeit the award. Any questions on creating a CampDoc account can be directed to youthprograms@campusrec.ucdavis.edu. 

 

Applicants must be current and active UC Davis students.

Tips For Success

  • Please only apply for one (1) program. We recommend choosing the one you are most interested in.
  • Ensure you meet the requirements (including prerequisites) for your desired activity.
  • Apply as far in advance as possible – at least one (1) week before the activity start date (or as soon as applications open).
  • Do not purchase the activity before receiving notification of your application decision – the Fee Waiver functions as a credit/discount toward purchase, not a reimbursement.
  • Submissions are evaluated on the thoroughness, thoughtfulness, and completeness of all responses in the application. Please use complete sentences.
  • Incomplete applications, activities not offered through the Rec portal, and requests for certifications will not be reviewed.
  • Granted waivers do not guarantee a space in the desired activity, so apply and register early!
  • Awards are granted for student-level pricing, and some graduate students may need to pay the difference in pricing.
