UWM’s Sport and Recreation program is now called FitWell<\/a>, starting with the Fall 2024 course catalog. Representing fitness, wellness and sports, the program promotes student health, well-being and skill-building through fun and engaging 1- and 2-credit courses.<\/p>\n

Courses offer students an opportunity to be active, creative, strategic, mindful, competitive and adventurous outdoors.<\/p>\n

Classes are either a full semester (16 weeks) or a half semester (8 weeks), with early and midterm starts. Students can find options that are in person, virtual and hybrid. Undergraduate students see no additional tuition cost if they have between 12 and 18 total credits. Credits are applied toward GPA.<\/p>\n

The website and social media have been relaunched as uwm.edu\/fitwell<\/a> and on Facebook and Instagram as @uwmfitwell.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
