Athletic Training (BS Degree)

A major in Athletic Training consists of 74 hours and does not require a minor.

The BSAT/Athletic Training Program (ATP) will transition to an entry-level master’s (ELM) graduate program by summer 2017. (pending approval by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges). This transition is being made in response to changes within the athletic training profession and in order to maintain a high-quality educational experience for athletic training students. Final applications to the undergraduate ATP will be accepted spring of 2015 for a fall 2015 admission to the professional phase of the ATP (see Admission Requirements). This last cohort of students admitted to the BSAT (professional phase) for fall 2015 must complete the program by no later than spring/summer 2018 to be eligible to take the national Board of Certification, Inc. examination for athletic trainers. There will be no exceptions. If students do not complete the BSAT by spring/summer 2018, they have the following options to attain certification exam eligibility: transfer to an accredited program at a different university, or seek admission to the new ELM program at CSU. For further information, please contact the director of the athletic training program.  All current students admitted to the professional phase must also complete the BSAT by spring/summer 2018 to be eligible for the BOC Inc. examination for athletic trainers.
