1. Will a club sport fulfill PE credit requirement?

Yes it can; it depends on the number of hours per week of practice you must attend. And you can only get a certain amount of credit.



2. Do you need to try out to get in, or is it no cut?

Generally it is no cut, though this varies by sport. Rugby, for example, will be more competitive since many people are interested in it, but I’m not sure if they end up having to cut people or not.



3. How rigorous is the practice/game schedule for club tennis? i.e. how many days a week, or how many hours per day

No idea about club tennis.



4. Are there a lot of extra consts in joining a club sport, such as transportation or clothing fees?

Varies by sport; not as much as a varsity sport, but club sports are limited by the amount of money allotted to them through Student Activities Office.



5. A club sport is not signed up for as a course, right?

Correct. All club sports/PE do not count as a course on your transcript – only classes count.

There will be a PE Orientation event scheduled during Orientation Week. You should go to that as they can answer more of your questions.
