SCHOOL OF KINESIOLOGY ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS

• Letter of Intent describing why you want to obtain a graduate degree in kinesiology
• Resume, submitted with letter of intent
• Approval from the School of Kinesiology Director and Graduate Program Officer

Although we only require a bachelor’s degree or its equivalent from an accredited college or university, we strongly recommend that our graduate students, who have not completed undergraduate degrees in kinesiology or other related fields, complete undergraduate coursework in exercise physiology, biomechanics, and motor learning prior to starting a graduate degree program in Kinesiology.

Additionally, basic science courses are the foundation of the Kinesiology academic discipline and we suggest securing this knowledge prior to starting our program.
