Program details
Overview
This 120-credit Bachelor of Arts combines specialized knowledge of the sport and recreation industry with grounding in core business principles. Coursework addresses the structure, governance, and administration of sport and recreation organizations, event and facility management, sport marketing and media, leadership development through sport, financial management within sport organizations, and the legal, ethical, and societal issues that arise in the field. The program requires a 3-credit practicum plus a 12-credit supervised ministry experience, giving students structured, supervised placements to apply classroom learning in real settings. It is delivered on Kingswood University's campus. Graduates are positioned for roles connected to teams, events and facilities, municipal recreation, schools, camps, churches, and missions. The program suits students who see themselves coaching, organizing events, or leading within sport and recreation settings, including those who want to combine that work with a ministry-oriented outlook rather than pursue it purely as elite athletes.

Admission Requirements: Kingswood's own programme page for the Bachelor of Arts in Sports & Recreation Management lists its admission requirements as a high school diploma or equivalent, a completed undergraduate application, and additional documents as requested by Admissions, noting that English proficiency is required if applicable. As a Bachelor's-level programme it also falls under the university's general undergraduate admission requirements, which set a minimum grade of 70% in Academic or College-preparatory courses taken in grades 10-12 (two English credits, two Math or Science credits, and two Social Science credits), with conditional admission and a qualifying first semester available to students who fall short. All prospective students are additionally assessed on moral behaviour and character, personal Christian testimony, and ministry graces. Neither page publishes specific IELTS, TOEFL or other English-test component scores.
Application Details
Application Deadline:Kingswood University publishes no fixed application deadline: domestic undergraduate and graduate (Master of Arts in Pastoral Theology) applicants apply on a continuous basis by submitting the application, transcripts, and a pastor's reference, with admission granted as files are completed. International applicants follow the same rolling process but must additionally satisfy Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) requirements -- a tuition deposit, passport and consent, and proof of English proficiency -- before Kingswood forwards the PAL request to the Province of New Brunswick; the university publishes no current-cycle international closing date, only historical guidance tied to a 2024 policy change. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
