Purpose: The Associate of Science degree program curriculum in Kinesiology is designed to transfer to a four-year college or university toward a baccalaureate degree in Kinesiology.
 

Admission Requirements: In addition to the admission requirements established for the college, entry into the Kinesiology program requires the satisfactory completion of the following high school units or equivalents: 1 unit of high school biology, 1 unit of high school chemistry, and 1 unit of high school algebra. Students with deficiencies will require developmental studies.

Program Requirements: This curriculum requires courses in the arts and humanities, written and oral communication skills, natural sciences, mathematics, history, social sciences, computer sciences, health and physical  education, and general psychology usually required in the first two years of a baccalaureate Kinesiology curriculum. In planning a program and selecting electives, each student is urged to become acquainted with the  assigned adviser, and the catalog of the institution to which the student plans to transfer. The VCCS Transfer & Guaranteed Admissions Agreements site provides a full listing of transfer opportunities. In order to prepare for junior class standing at a senior institution, a student usually must complete a program at the community college which is comparable in length and course content to the first two years at the four-year institution. All courses completed for this degree area must be transferable to the Kinesiology program at the senior institution the student plans to attend; therefore, SWCC reserves the right to restrict specific or elective courses for use in the Kinesiology program. Upon satisfactory completion of SWCC’s four-semester program, the graduate will be awarded the Associate of Science degree with a major in Kinesiology.
