Future Students

The Athletic Training Education Program at UNC is a challenging 5 semester program in which students develop practical athletic training skills through a clinically focused curriculum.  Enrolled students will have the opportunity to obtain supervised, hands-on clinical experiences with the 19 varsity sport teams at UNC as well as at various affiliate sites including out-patient clinic and high school settings.

Admission to the ATEP occurs in the Spring semester of each school year.  Applications are submitted in mid-November of the Fall semester preceding desired admission.  Following admission, the student must complete 5 consecutive and sequential semesters in order to complete the program.

Prospective Athletic Training Students interested in completing observations may do so during the either the fall or the spring semesters.  If you are interested you may sign up in the Athletic Training Room, room 124 in Butler-Hancock Hall.  As component of SES 181 (Introduction to Athletic Training), three 90 minute observations are required.  If you have any questions, please contact either Shannon Courtney (shannon.courtney@unco.edu) or Jim Turk (james.turk@unco.edu).
