All university-level educational transcripts are required for an application to the Kinesiology graduate program. The Kinesiology graduate program strongly prefers online uploads of transcripts at the application stage. This facilitates online application review. We hope that it is also cheaper, easier, faster and more efficient for applicants, especially those applying to multiple institutions. If you are able to scan a personal copy of your official transcript, or if you can obtain an unofficial electronic transcript, you may upload it to your online admission application.

The UW Graduate School requires all graduate students to have a bachelor's degree (or equivalent) prior to entry into Grad status at UW-Madison. Applications may be submitted while the bachelor's or other undergraduate degree is still in progress, but the undergraduate degree will need to be completed by the start of graduate study. If the bachelor's or equivalent degree will be conferred (officially granted, listed on transcript) after graduate study begins, the UW Graduate School will allow a short grace period for proof-of-degree.

The Graduate School's official minimum GPA for undergraduate work is 3.0 (if the grading scale was A=4.0 as a maximum). A department may seek a waiver of the GPA minimum if it feels that the applicant has a particularly compelling qualitative background.

Applicants whose undergraduate work was evaluated on a grading scale other than A=4.0 may submit transcripts with the original institution's grades, marks, or scores, and UW will do its own conversion. Minimum IELTS -7.0 , Minimum TOEFL IBT - 92 ,TOEFL PBT - 580.
