Overview
In addition to the requirements of Graduate Education, applicants for the MS degrees will be further evaluated on their disciplinary degree (Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Science or AT) and in their area of specialization. The Department of Kinesiology and Rehabilitation Science (KRS) also requires submission of Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores.
Each applicant admitted will be classified in one of two categories: (1) Regular status–student who has a baccalaureate degree in the area which he or she will pursue and a minimum overall grade point average of 3.0 during the final two years of undergraduate work, or (2) Conditional status–student of promise who may have a deficiency in grade point average and/or subject matter preparation.
Physical Activity and Adapted Physical Activity program applicants should have a related undergraduate degree from an accredited college or university.
Applicants of either program must also submit proof of: TB clearance, Hepatitis B vaccine or waiver and professional liability insurance prior to program entrance. Admission to the program will depend on the availability of faculty in the particular area of scholarship.
Rehabilitation Counseling Program admission is based on previous preparation and background, intellectual and affective potential for graduate study, and personal qualifications that contribute to success as a counselor.
Application to the program presumes satisfactory completion of a bachelor's degree with an acceptable undergraduate grade point average.
