General Requirements
No more than 4 units of physical education activity courses may be applied to a student’s overall unit requirement, toward his or her USC degree.
Registration in courses PHED 102a , PHED 102b –PHED 163 is contingent upon assessment of students’ knowledge and competence in performance during the first two class meetings. Students who wear glasses while participating in vigorous activities must secure departmental approval of provisions made for eye protection in courses PHED 140a and PHED 140b . Course PHED 165 is reserved for students who are reporting for regular freshman or varsity athletic squads.
To obtain a prerequisite waiver to take a “b” class before having taken the “a” class, the instructor’s approval and signature are needed. Students should be aware that in the future they cannot take the prerequisite course in the activity for credit after having it waived.
