The institution will be submitting a self-study to begin the accreditation process on July 1, 2023. Submission of the self-study and completion of an onsite review does not guarantee that the program will become accredited. Students who graduate from the program prior to accreditation will not be eligible to sit for the credentialing examination for athletic trainers and will not be eligible for licensure in most states. Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education (CAATE).
