Welcome to Physical Education

Our office offers a variety of physical education classes for undergraduate students to complete the swim requirement and the 8 point General Institute Requirement. The swim requirement can be met by completing a beginner swim class or electing to test out.

Classes generally meet twice a week for 40 minutes. The program administers over 40 different class sessions beginning every six weeks during the academic year.
