Download an information sheet

A year of study at Canadian Mennonite University (CMU) could prepare you to meet the entrance requirements for a baccalaureate program in kinesiology. This page explains what you must complete if you wish to gain admission at the University of Manitoba to earn the Bachelor of Kinesiology. If you intend to continue studies at some other university, similar possibilities exist. However, it is important that you inquire about admission and program requirements at the university you are considering and that you work with the Coordinator of Student Advising at CMU to construct a program of studies that will achieve your objectives.

If you intend to earn your degree at the University of Manitoba, you can begin with a year of studies at CMU and complete the program at the University of Manitoba without adding to the time it would take if you were to go directly to the University of Manitoba.
