Academic Plan

The following is the recommended four-year academic plan for those students pursuing the athletic training major. This plan has been developed for those students entering the College as a freshman. Each student is advised prior to registration for courses each semester. The program director for the program serves as the advisor for all students majoring in athletic training. This plan may vary based on the individual needs of the student and course offerings for the designated academic term. The academic plan for students transferring to the College will be based on courses that transfer and course offerings for the designated academic term. Students interested in applying for admission to physical therapy school following graduation from Huntingdon College should inform their advisor upon admission into the program so that pre-requisite courses for the professional school can be incorporated into the academic plan in a practical and timely manner.
