Apartments Near Baylor Student Life Center
The Student Life Center (SLC) houses Baylor's gym, rock climbing wall, indoor pool, group fitness classes, and intramural sports facilities.
Why Baylor Student Life Center Matters
The Baylor Student Life Center is one of the best perks of being a Baylor student — a full-service gym, indoor pool, rock climbing wall, basketball courts, racquetball, group fitness classes, and intramural sports facilities all included with your enrollment. Most people pay $50 to $100 a month for less. Living 0.4 miles from the SLC means using it stays easy. You can squeeze in a 30-minute lift between classes without driving across campus, hit the climbing wall on a slow afternoon, or join a 6 a.m. group fitness class without setting an alarm for 5. Centre also has its own community pool for active recovery and casual swimming, so you have both an on-campus gym option and an on-site water amenity within steps of your front door. For students who care about staying active, the combination is hard to beat.
