You shouldnt have a problem getting through...seriously

haha...yeah, it was a joke because a lot of people say it's a cake walk.



I went through but I finished up a few years ago...it's a good program if you're sure that's what you want to go into....if not I'd do communications with a SMGT minor or Business or whatever else you want and minor in it...if you're not sure Sports is without a doubt your future then do it, you're thoroughly enjoy it...but real life is key with this business...do as many internships and practicums (sp?) as possible...even if you dont get credit for it, ask any sports franchise/school or whoever if you can just help out on game day, in the office, or whatever else you can just to be around it. It's a different world, different lingo different everything that a classroom just cant teach you

lol... wondering... im on my phone and didnt re-read what i wrote. good call though

You deleted your post


Above was my response to your last one

i heard it was easy to get into. my brother got accepted without applying hahaha

Yeah, you don't have to apply to the SMGT program.

i deleted it because i misspelled something again haha

Talk to BJ--he's had several coaching classes at LU.

I took all of them. I was a coaching minor. I took Intro, Coaching Football, Coaching Basketball, Sport Psych, and the other things involved with the minor. They've changed up a few though. Instead of just intro to coaching they've changed it to two classes, one for spring sports and one for fall sports.

Just curious, Super--are there any coaching classes at LU at the graduate school level?

Not right now. They were planning on adding Coaching as a directive when they added the SMGT graduate program but they haven't added the program yet. It was going to be Sport Business, Sport Ministry, and Coaching as the three directives you could take.
