The five-year program sponsored jointly by the Faculties of Kinesiology and Nursing (and administered by the Faculty of Nursing) leads to both the Bachelor of Kinesiology (General) and Bachelor of Nursing degrees.

Students wishing to pursue this program will normally apply to enter the combined degree after successful completion of at least eight half-course equivalents in the Faculty of Kinesiology. Biology 231 and Kinesiology 261 must be included in these eight half courses. Entrants into the combined program (i.e., Faculty of Nursing) must meet the transfer admission criteria that apply to the Bachelor of Nursing Regular Track program.

Students who apply to the combined program from a Faculty other than Kinesiology (or students who apply from an outside institution) must meet the annual admission criteria of both the Faculties of Kinesiology and Nursing plus present a minimum of eight half-course equivalents (which include Biology 231 and Kinesiology 261). Students should consult with the Student Affairs office in each Faculty prior to applying to the combined program.

Students are strongly advised to adhere to the following program of studies.

Once admitted to the combined program, a student may elect to remain in it or switch to either of the two separate degree programs, as long as the requirements of each Faculty continue to be met. Failure to meet requirements will result in a student being required to withdraw.

Combined degree students will be subject to the standard Faculty of Nursing conditions and regulations found in this section of the Calendar, e.g. Health Regulations, Criminal Record Checks, CPR Certification, Clinical Policies, Duration of Degree Program, Transfer Credit, Dean's List, Degrees with Distinction, Gold Medal Award, Nurse Registration Examinations, etc. The promotion and graduation requirements of each Faculty apply.
