Variable-Credit Courses

Enrolling in variable-credit courses. The term "variable-credit" refers to courses in which the student can choose the number of credits in consultation with a faculty mentor. Students must submit a completed, signed copy of the Application to Enroll in Variable-Credit Courses to the KIN office in Room 134 IM Circle when enrolling in a variable-credit course. For independent study and field work courses, students must also submit the Application for Independent Study and Fieldwork.

Student responsibilities. In general, students must propose the objectives, learning activities, and evaluation plans for a variable-credit course in writing. This proposal must be approved by an instructor who is a member of the KIN faculty and by the student's academic advisor. Students can view sample objectives, learning activities, and evaluation plans included in the KIN 493 course materials and the advising materials developed for master's degree students in the coaching, sport administration, and student-athlete development concentrations.

Restrictions. Students are advised that a limited number of variable-credit courses may be counted toward the B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees. Varsity athletes also have restrictions related to enrollment in variable-credit courses. Consult with your academic advisor for more information.
