Program details

Overview

This program at the University of Guelph-Humber combines an Honours Bachelor of Applied Science in Kinesiology from the University of Guelph with a Diploma in Fitness & Health Promotion from Humber Polytechnic, delivered full-time on campus over four years, with a shortened route for qualifying transfer students. The curriculum covers human physiology, exercise science, and client-centred fitness instruction, supported by access to advanced lab equipment such as body-composition analysis and motion-capture systems. Students complete a required work placement in their third year combining on-campus and off-campus components with organizations such as athletic programs and rehabilitation centres, with an additional placement available in the fourth year for students who choose it; students who do not take the optional fourth-year placement instead complete a research thesis. The program suits students aiming for careers in healthcare, rehabilitation, athletic therapy, ergonomics, wellness, sport, or strength and conditioning, as well as those planning further graduate study in medicine, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, or related health professions.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 70.00 / %
Admission Requirements: Ontario Secondary School Diploma applicants need six Grade 12 U/M courses — ENG4U (or an equivalent such as EAE4U), any Grade 12 U mathematics course, SBI4U, and three further 4U/M credits — with a minimum admission average above 70%. Out-of-province, transfer, mature, home-schooled and international applicants each follow their own published pathway. The programme page sets no language score of its own, so the University of Guelph-Humber's institution-wide English Language Proficiency Requirements apply: IELTS Academic overall 6.5 with no band below 6.0, TOEFL iBT total 89 with no section below 21, PTE Academic overall 60 with no component below 60, CAEL overall 70, or Duolingo English Test overall 110, all under two years old. No portfolio, interview or work-experience condition is stated for direct-entry admission.

Application Details

Application Deadline: For current Ontario or other-Canadian-province secondary-school applicants (OSSD/equivalent completing 2026-27), Fall 2027 OUAC applications open in September 2026 and close June 1, 2027, with U of GH's own supplementary application due April 1, 2027, decisions released by May 28, 2027, and offers to be accepted by June 1, 2027. The international-applicant and 'already graduated domestic' pages have not been updated to this cycle: they still show the passed Winter 2026 (November 1, 2025) and Fall 2026 (May 1, 2026) deadlines, with no Fall 2027 or Winter 2027 date yet published for either group. Admission is otherwise handled on a rolling basis once conditions are met. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
