Athletic Training
as a Profession

Students interested in pursuing careers in athletic training should seek advisement from the ATEP faculty early. Admission into the program is competitive due to efforts to maintain appropriate student-faculty ratios and the availability of appropriate clinical resources. The selection of students into the program is based on the student's demonstration of a sincere interest in the field of athletic training, the student's demonstration of an ability to benefit from the educational program, and fulfillment of the following admission criteria. Also, due to the required educational competencies and proficiencies that have been established by the National Athletic Trainers' Association as essential for the entry-level athletic trainer, technical standards have been established which students must meet in order to achieve the knowledge, skills, and competencies essential to practice in the profession of athletic training. Students applying for admission to the ATEP are expected to abide by the Code of Ethics of the National Athletic Trainers' Association.
