Program Requirements for Athletic Training Majors (83.5 credits)
The two-year professional program combines intensive classroom and clinical education. Students interested in the athletic training program must meet strict and demanding admissions requirements and formally apply to the program in the spring of their second year. Once admitted, students begin an intense didactic study with clinical experience in relevant and up-to-date practical knowledge. In addition to the minimum 126.5 credits, students will have clinical experience hours working with university athletic teams, local high schools, physician offices, and local physical therapy clinics.
Please see the Athletic Training Program (ATP) website, marywood.edu/AT, for the most up-to-date information concerning all aspects of the ATP.
