Bachelor of Science in Sport, Exercise and Performance Psychology

The Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology program helps you turn your passion for sport, movement, and human potential into a purposeful career. The goal of our program is to help students combine a passion for sports with an evidence-based approach to psychology. You’ll explore how psychological and social factors influence performance in sport, fitness, military, performing arts, and other high-pressure settings. You’ll also examine what motivates people to stay active and live well. WVU is home to one of the most globally respected sport and performance psychology doctoral programs in the country, and the undergraduate experience is shaped by that same level of expertise and innovation. The SEPP program is one of the only undergraduate programs of its kind across the country and widely respected.

WVU will convert applicants academic results into a U.S. grade point average (GPA) on a maximum 4.0 scale. Freshman applicants with a converted GPA of at least 2.5 on a 4.0 scale can be admitted, although some majors may have higher GPA requirements for direct entry.
