Tips for Success

• Get an undergraduate Kinesiology program handbook from the KIN main office (or use the online version) and reference it frequently.
• Make sure the department (provide to staff in main office) and the University (online through mysjsu) have your correct email address.
• Check for messages at mysjsu regularly. Notices from the university are posted there pertaining to your enrollment and progress to your degree.
• Check the KIN bulletin boards in Spartan Complex weekly for announcements and/or academic deadlines.
• Each semester (before enrollment period opens) meet with your Kinesiology academic advisor to review progress and plan next steps.
• Take the Writing Skills Test (WST) as soon as possible after finishing English 1B. See web site for information and test dates.
• Get involved! Whether through Greek Life, an honor society, or a student club, you will find that having a network of friends in and outside the Kinesiology program is invaluable and that experiences outside of the classroom are as important as those in the classroom.
