BA IN EXERCISE AND SPORT SCIENCE
A minimum cumulative 2.0 GPA is required for admission to exercise and
sports science as a major. Each exercise and sport science major must successfully
complete physical fitness requirements as specified in the advising packet.
A minimal score will be a prerequisite for official admission to the exercise
and sports science major program. This test will be given twice yearly.
Minimum degree requirement is 126 s.h. of credit as follows:
