From Whom: Applicants must submit the names of two professional references, along with an email address and telephone number at which each individual can be contacted. Typically, referees are college/university faculty or immediate work supervisor who can provide insight into the applicant\'s abilities and talents, as well as comment on her/his aptitude for graduate study.

Coursework Required for Admission Consideration: It is preferred that applicants have completed laboratory courses in biology, chemistry, human anatomy and physiology, and physics.

Bachelor\'s Degree in Discipline/Related Discipline: All applicants must present credentials that are the equivalent of the appropriate baccalaureate degree at Temple University.

Statement of Goals: A statement of one to two pages should be clearly written and well thought out.

Standardized Test Scores:
GRE/MAT: Required. Scores of 150 each are preferred on the verbal and quantitative sections. Occasionally, students with lower totals are accepted if undergraduate work and/or other life experiences suggest a high degree of probability of success in the graduate program.

TOEFL: 79 iBT or 550 PBT minimum.

Clearances: Students in the Integrative Exercise Physiology M.S. concentration in Kinesiology have the option to complete clinical/field education experiences at facilities both on and off Temple University\'s campuses. These placements may require criminal background checks, Act 33/34 clearances, and perhaps a drug screen. Many may also require students to have personal health insurance. The results of these requirements may limit and potentially eliminate placement options for the student, thus resulting in her/his ability to meet graduation requirements. The College cannot ensure clinical field placements if the individual fails to meet the requirements or maintain health insurance. Additionally, conviction of a misdemeanor, felony, or felonious or illegal act may prevent the individual from becoming credentialed and/or licensed to practice.

Interview: An interview is scheduled at a mutually convenient time between the faculty interviewer(s) and the applicant. Master\'s applicants may interview by telephone or video chat if an on-campus visit is difficult to arrange.

Resume: Current resume required.
