| Welcome to the UG Curriculum in Exercise Scienc For the 120-hour degree, the Exercise Science (ES) program requires a 3.2 GPA and completion of BIOL 2210/2210L for admission into the undergraduate ES program. Students are required to complete PREREQs for all ES classes. Special Note: A grade of 'B-' or better is required for all PEP, PRPE and PHED courses in the ES program. A grade of 'C' or better (not C-) is required for each General Education course towards the 120-hour degree. |

| ADVISEMENT NOTES: Once accepted into the College of Education & Health Sciences, students must meet with their Exercise Science advisor (Dr. Kravitz) each semester to remove the Academic Hold for registration. A student earning below a "B-" in a PEP course may repeat the class. If a student does not receive a "B-" or better on the second attempt the student will be removed from the Exercise Science program. GRADUATION NOTE: All students must complete a ‘graduation check’ the semester PRIOR to graduation. CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS All students going onto graduate programs are encourage to look up the prereqs for these future career paths and complete the classes along †he way to finishing the B.S. Degree in Exercise Science. Exercise Science Electives: |
