Faculty of Applied Health

Students pursuing a program of studies that does not coincide with either a single major or a combined major program within the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences may choose a Bachelor of Applied Health (Pass) Degree.

Bachelor of Applied Health (Pass)

Bachelor of Applied Health (BAH) is available as a 15-credit degree only. Course selection for this degree program is strictly limited and, as the requirements differ from other Faculty of Applied Health Science degrees, students should be aware of the specific requirements for this degree. The requirement for graduation with a BAH is a minimum 60 percent overall average on completion of program requirements.

A Bachelor of Applied Health degree will not designate a major or area of concentration.

Students electing to or recommended to pursue the Bachelor of Applied Health program should develop a program plan in consultation with an Academic Advisor in the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences.

Program Notes
  1. To proceed to year 2, a minimum 60% average in Year 1 Applied Health course(s) is required to continue in the program.
  2. Students must complete 8.0 credits from within the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences, of which seven of the eight credits must be from the following departments: Kinesiology, Recreation and Leisure Studies or Nursing.
  3. Courses that are cross-listed with the Faculty of Applied Health Science and another Faculty (or Faculties) will be counted toward the total number of credits taken within the Faculty of Applied Health Sciences (see program note 2).
  4. Students who have transferred from the Loyalist College Nursing program will receive equal credit for all of their courses. Specified transfer credits would be recognized as equivalent to NUSC courses at Brock University.
  5. Students must check to ensure that prerequisites are met. Students may be deregistered from any course for which prerequisites and/or restrictions have not been met.
  6. In 15 credit degree programs a maximum of eight credits may be numbered 1(alpha)00 to 1(alpha)99; at least three credits must be numbered 2(alpha)90 or above; and the remaining credits must be numbered 2(alpha)00 or above.
