Applicants to the Athletic Therapy Major will enter the program at the third year level after successful completion of listed prerequisites, and selection using quantitative criteria. Admission to the Major is limited to ten students each year. Applicants from outside Kinesiology must also meet the admission criteria for admission to the Faculty.
Since five full-course equivalents of this degree are Mount Royal University courses, a maximum of five additional full-course equivalents of transfer credit may be counted towards the degree (see Transfer of Credit from Other Institutions in section 3.2).
The following requirements must be met and will be used as criteria in determining the most suitable candidates for admission and registration in the program:
1. Successful completion of eight or more full-course equivalents. The last four full-course equivalents must have been completed at the University of Calgary.
2. A minimum GPA of 3.00 over the most recent course work to a maximum of five full-course equivalents (University of Calgary courses and/or transferable courses taken at other institutions). All grades within a term will be included except where the number of courses taken within a term exceeds that required to fulfill (to a maximum of) five full-course equivalents, in which case the highest grades will be used.
3. Successful completion of the following required courses, or equivalents:
(a) Kinesiology 203
(b) Kinesiology 259 with a minimum grade of "C+"
(c) Kinesiology 260 with a minimum grade of "C+"
(d) Kinesiology 263
(e) Kinesiology 323 with a minimum grade of "C"
(f) Kinesiology 330
(g) Kinesiology 371 with a minimum grade of "B"
4. Completion of a structured Letter of Intent (to be used in the event of a tie).
After meeting the above criteria, students will be ranked according to their GPA calculated over their last five full-course equivalents.
