What are the typical entrance and exit physical fitness standards for the Vermont Police Academy?
Answer! The Vermont Police Academy uses the standards as set forth by the Cooper Institute for Aerobics Research. The entrance standard is 40th % based on age and gender. The only event that may be failed and allow the candidate to still pass the entrance test is the body-fat event. Exit standards require the 50th % based on age and gender. If a candidate fails any event during the final test they do not pass the test. Note: This is the minimum standard for Academy Entrance. Individual Departments may have standards that exceed these minimums. Check with the department you are applying to. Click here to find the Physical Assessment Standards for your age and gender.
