FAQ for PATHFIT Enlistment
To help you plan your schedule, here is a quick guide to the PATHFIT requirements.
1. How many PATHFIT courses do I need to graduate?
You are required to complete a total of four (4) PATHFIT courses. Think of these as a vital part of your journey toward graduation!
2. Is there a specific order I need to follow?
Yes, the program is designed to build your confidence, competence and desire to be physically active step-by-step:
• PATHFIT 1 (Movement Competency Training): This is the foundation and must be taken first.
• PATHFIT 2 (Exercise-based Fitness Activities): You can take this once you’ve completed PATHFIT 1.
• PATHFIT 3 & 4: Once you have finished PATHFIT 2, you have the freedom to choose!
These are elective courses where you can pick from various sports, dance, exercise, or recreational activities.
3. What is the difference between PATHFIT 3 and PATHFIT 4?
The numbers simply represent the sequential order of your PE journey.
• PATHFIT 3 is your third PE course.
• PATHFIT 4 is your fourth and final PE course.
4. Can I take the same activity for both PATHFIT 3 and 4?
To give you a well-rounded experience, duplicates are not allowed. Your PATHFIT 4 activity must be different from the one you completed in PATHFIT 3. For example, if you took Futsal for PATHFIT 3, you should choose a different activity (like Street Dance or Pickleball) for PATHFIT 4.
5. Can I take two PATHFIT courses in one semester to finish faster?
No. To ensure you stay active throughout your stay in the university and to manage your workload, students are only allowed to take one (1) PATHFIT course per semester.
6. I’m a varsity athlete; does that count as my PATHFIT?
No. PATHFIT courses are a distinct academic requirement. Substitution is not allowed. Regardless of varsity status or other extracurricular physical activities, every student must enroll in and complete the official PATHFIT courses.
