In college, is football practice considered a class?

<p>Is football practice considered a class in college? In high school, I <em>think</em> it’s something that you do on the side. That is, it’s an none credit extracurricular activity that’s done after class. Is it the same in college? Is it different in college?</p>

<p>This belongs in College Life… But to my knowledge, football is not a class in either high school or college (unless its football PE which is only in high school)</p>

<p>It’s a class in most colleges. In fact, at some really academically-oriented colleges, you can actually fail football class. The coaches will actually threaten the players with Fs before major games as to motivate them. Harvard is one example that comes to mind. Once those players start dreaming of Fs on their transcripts … you bet that they’ll win against Princeton. Those Princeton kids and their GPAs be damned.</p>

<p>^—LOL</p>

<p>yeah, sports are actually “classes” in college.</p>

<p>If you’re really good you’ll be placed in “Honors Football”</p>

<p>Not sure, but Football is a class at my high school. All sports are actually.</p>

<p>Oops I was wrong… Spoken like a true band geek :p</p>

<p>Some schools your sports is a class. I know varsity football has their seventh period. Volleyball has 1st period and so on. It’s so they can practice before school and continue practice through first period. Basically to get more practice time.</p>

<p>lol really?
No, they’re not a class at my school. They’re extracurricular activities that you don’t get a grade for.</p>
