Physical Education Varsity Sport Credit (PEAC 000)

A UVM student-athlete who is a member of the UVM Intercollegiate Athletic Department is eligible to receive one (1.0) Physical Education credit per year for each varsity sport they participate in. The student-athlete may only receive credit for PEAC 000 in the semester their sport has its traditional competitive season. There are three exceptions to this policy:

1. If the traditional competitive season spans both semester, the student-athlete may choose either Fall or Spring Semester to receive PEAC 000 credit.
2. If a student-athlete is registered for 18 academic credits in the semester which is the traditional competitive season for their sport, they may register for PEAC 000 in the other semeseter that academic year.
3. If a student-athlete fails to register for PEAC 000, they may receive retroactive Varsity Sport Credit. In order to receive retroactive credit for PEAC 000, the Athletic Eligibility Office must verify that the student-athlete was on the roster at the end of the semester they wish to receive credit for PEAC 000. Once it is determined the student-athlete is eligible to receive PEAC 000, their coach must be contacted to assign a letter grade.

In order to receive Varsity Sport Credit (PEAC 000), the student-athlete must be listed on the official team roster at the end of the semester they register for PEAC 000. During the grading period at the end of each semester, the head coach will assign a letter grade to every student-athlete on their team who has registered for PEAC 000.

It is the student-athlete's responsibility to officially register for PEAC 000. Student-athletes may register for PEAC 000 on-line, and should make every effort to register for PEAC 000 early in the semester.
