Students, faculty, and staff have 24/7 access to three exercise spaces located on the third floor of our campus. These spaces offer a variety of free weights, treadmills, stationary bikes, elliptical machines, and yoga equipment. Recreational equipment is available on the second floor and includes an Xbox, PlayStation, and a ping pong table. All these spaces will be open to OMS I-IV students year-round with no sign-up needed.
The Cleveland campus provides a paid membership opportunity to Life Time Fitness which allows all OMS I & II students to access any Ohio gym, or any out of state gym with the same price point. The Beachwood facility
is located minutes from the Cleveland campus at 3850 Richmond Rd, Beachwood, OH 44122. This membership allows students access to group exercise classes, open swim and pool use, basketball courts and much more. Membership sign-
up is available starting fall term of your OMS I year, and there is no deadline to enroll. A link will be sent to your HCOM email address with instructions on how to sign-up during Cleveland orientation, and you can reach out to Rachel Moore
, the Assistant Director of Student Affairs, for sign-up help any time after that date. To maintain an active membership, students must visit Life Time fitness a minimum of four days each month.
Students are responsible for tracking their own visits, and can do so on the Life Time app. To avoid discrepancies, please check your app before leaving the gym each time you visit to make sure your visit was properly recorded, and see the attendant if you notice an issue so that you may re-scan that same day. Provided you continue to meet the monthly visit requirement, your
membership will remain active through your OMS II year.
OMS III & IV students can receive a discount on a self-pay Life Time membership if they would like to continue using the gym after their OMS II year. Please see the Assistant Director of Student Affairs for current rate information.
Additional information about the requirements associated with your HCOM Life Time membership, and the process to sign-up for a self-pay membership can be found in the FAQs section.
Life Time Fitness offers free digital memberships to all HCOM faculty, staff & students! Simply download the Life Time app via the Apple Store or the Google Play store or visit Life Time . Please note: this offer will not give you in-person access to the gym.
The digital membership includes features like:
Provided the necessary visits are made, first-year students will retain their membership over
the summer and through their OMS II year. Memberships will end following the conclusion ofyour OMS II year on June 30th. Afterwards, you have the option to set up your own paid
membership with Life Time Fitness to continue using the gym.
Visits logged is not the same as days visited. Please verify your app also says you attended
the gym on four different days. Visiting multiple times in one day does not count towards thistotal. It is your responsibility to ensure your visits are properly logged each day you attend the
gym, as there is no other way to verify your attendance.
Because we are billed in arrears, cancellation will not be effective for two months (ex: if you
only visit 3 days in April, your membership cancellation will be effective June 1 st). You may still
visit the gym in the month in between. However, these visits will not be tracked for our
purposes and your membership will still be cancelled if you fail to take action in the interim.
Please email the Assistant Director of Student Affairs, Rachel Moore
, if you
know you have failed to hit the required visits. Reaching out prior to receiving your cancellation
notice to indicate that you would like to remain active will prevent an interruption to your
access.
Email the Assistant Director of Student Affairs for instructions on how to reactivate your
account. Please do not reenroll on your own, as you may inadvertently create a second account
for yourself in the same billing cycle, causing the college to be billed twice
You will still need to visit four days in the month of your reactivation, regardless of how
many days remain in the month. Please pursue your reactivation in a month when you believe
you can visit four days.
Students are capped at 3 reactivation requests per academic year. After that, OMS I
memberships will be closed for the remainder of the academic year, with the option to requestreactivation the following August. OMS II memberships will be permanently suspended after
their 4th time not satisfying the visit requirement in that membership cycle.
OMS III & IV students can receive a discount on the standard monthly membership rate to
help subsidize the cost of maintaining their own account. You can enroll at any time through
the remainder of your academic career at HCOM. Participating students will be responsible for
paying a monthly rate directly to Life Time if they decide to enroll. Please note, this rate is
subject to change at any time. Charges are made on the first of the month, and students who
join mid-month will not be billed until the beginning of the next month. This is a month-to-
month membership, which requires 30-days’ notice to cancel, and cancellation must be
completed in the club or via their cancellation link
.
Students who had an active HCOM sponsored gym membership within 60 days of requesting
a self-pay membership can email the Assistant Director of Student Affairs to be moved to a
paid plan at the discounted rate. The monthly rate will be billed to the credit card you have on
file with the gym, so please make any necessary updates to that information before seeking
enrollment so you’re prepared. Students who did not have an active HCOM membership within
60 days of requesting a self-pay membership can sign up to receive the discount
.
