  3. Interview with the School of Allied Health and Psychology MAT faculty for admission and scholarships.

International Student Instructions

Recommended Minimum Qualifications

  • Have a profession of faith in Jesus Christ
  • Hold a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution (preferred GPA of 3.0 or higher)
  • Meet all program prerequisites (see Prerequisite Courses list below) with a “C” grade or higher. Students not meeting program prerequisites or admission standards may be considered for conditional admission to the program.
  • Successful interview with the School of Allied Health and Psychology

MAT Prerequisite Courses

  • First Aid/CPR for the professional rescuer (3 credit hours)
  • Anatomy and Physiology I and II (8 credit hours with lab)
  • Exercise Physiology (3 credit hours)
  • Chemistry (4 credit hours with a lab)
  • Physics (4 credit hours with a lab)
  • General Biology (4 credit hours with a lab)

The Master of Athletic Training Program prefers that upper-level science prerequisites (i.e., anatomy, physiology, chemistry, physics, and microbiology) be taken in a traditional semester-long course, either in an in-person or online format. Alternative non-traditional learning options are acceptable for other prerequisites.

Science courses labeled as "survey" or "introductory" are not sufficient preparation for MAT prerequisites. All labs of prerequisite courses must be held in person.
