Students should consult the General Academic Plan  section of this Catalog to determine which majors are available in the Women’s College (day) or evening/weekend studies at Brenau University. Not all majors are offered at all Brenau locations.

Physical Education

As part of their liberal education curriculum, all students are required to take three semester hours in heath and leisure studies. Evening/weekend students will take HS 105, Healthy Lifestyle Habits for this requirement. For Women’s College students, a one hour class will be from the women’s health issues courses and another from the lifetime fitness or leisure sports (activity) categories. The third course may be taken from either area.

Lifetime Fitness Requirements

Students who complete a full season in team sports at Brenau University are exempt from one hour of a physical education activity course.
