Admission Requirements
Admission is competitive. The admission grade point average (GPA) is calculated each term on the five required courses shown below. If one or more have been duplicated (repeated), grades from all course attempts will be used equally to calculate kinesiology’s admission GPA.
Application can be made once the following have been completed, with a minimum grade of C-in each course. At that point, applicants can submit a program approval form to the undergraduate advisor.
