More so to say you need the Pulse to access the weight room. All the other things like courts, track are free (I don't think pool is free though)

I just read something about 4 months membership, working only in certain time periods. Like September - December. Is that true? I cant just pay and go there lets say from July to October?

yes they only start at certain dates. The 4 month memberships correspond with 1st semester (September) , second semester (January), and summer (May). The 8 month is a combination of two of the above. Its a good system that keeps things simple for administrators if you think about it.

Pulse contains:
-The (large) weight floor
-A cycling room
-The rock climbing wall
-A studio with classes held often
-circuit area (top floor)
-mat area (top floor)
-Cardio equipment (top floor)

Its a very good deal for what you pay.

Do students have access to the stadium? Like can a group of students just drop in and play a game of soccer? Or would you have to go to the smaller soccer field beside the stadium? And can students access that one for free as well?

Its fairly inexpensive, I mean its a pretty sweet gym with a LOT of equipment, for $60 for the summer, $120 for 8 months... That's pretty good.

Only caveat is that they have a shitload of dudes during their peak hours in the afternoon and evening.
