The Faculty of Kinesiology with the Faculty of Arts offers a five-year combined Bachelor of Kinesiology (Kinesiology)/Bachelor of Arts (Dance) degree program. The program requires careful selection of courses to complete all requirements of the two Faculties. Interested students are urged to contact the Advising Offices of the two faculties for advice in choosing their first-year courses.

Admission

Applicants to the combined program must satisfy the admission requirements of both Faculties. Students are strongly advised to enter the combined program directly in first year.

Once accepted to the combined program, the requirements of each Faculty must be met. Failure to do so will result in a student being required to withdraw from the combined or separate programs. A student may elect to remain in the combined program or submit a Change of Program request through the online Student Centre via MyUofC to remain in either of the two separate degree programs.
