Kinesiology Minor Program

Department of Biomecial Physiology and Kinesiology | Faculty of Science
間眅埶AV Calendar 2012 Summer

間眅埶AV Requirements

Application can be made once four of the required lower division courses have been competed, each with a minimum grade of C-, and the program approval form (available from the undergraduate advisor) has been submitted. At least onbe of the four courses must be KIN 105 or 142.

間眅埶AV is competitive.

The admission grade point average (GPA) is calculated each term on the four required courses. All courses completed towards the program will be included in the application process.

Application Procedure

Students should complete a program approval form, which is available at the department's general office, and submit it to the kinesiology advisor by June 1 for fall term approval, October 1 for spring term approval, or February 1 for summer term approval.
