Academic Advising

 

Degree Requirements:

Upon the completion of foundational coursework (through the semester when Human Physiology is taken), a student must meet the 2.75 cumulative GPA requirement, assessed from UW coursework.

 

Student Professionalism and Personal Conduct Expectations:

When pursuing degrees in the Division of Kinesiology and Health, students are expected to demonstrate professionalism in their manner of communication (oral & written, including email). Since these degrees require criminal background checks, it is encouraged that students be aware that personal decisions (while in college) can affect future professional opportunities.
