At the end of your first year in the athletic training education program you must:
- Obtain a minimum 2.500 grade point average for all classes taken at UT.
- Complete KINE 1110 (Introduction to Athletic Training -- minimum grade C+);
- KINE 1650 (Care and Prevention -- minimum grade C+);

- HEAL 1500 (First Aid -- minimum grade C+)
- Obtain a minimum 2.500 GPA in the required athletic training core courses.
- Be evaluated by the student mentors that the observation student shadows during the observation year.
- Complete 12 observation hours per semester shadowing upper class ATEP students.
- Complete and submit to the program director the application for acceptance into the professional program found on the KINE 1650 dl site.
- Complete an interview with the ATEP faculty and staff.
Scores are calculated as follows:
- GPA x 6.25 = pts. (25 pts. possible)
- Core GPA x 6.25 = pts. (25 pts. possible)
- Clinical evaluation by mentors: average of evaluation scores will be converted into a 20 point scale.
- Interview, 20 pts.
- Clinical Hours, 10 pts. possible (all or none).
Total points = 100
Students are rank ordered. The score is a guide and students are accepted into the professional program on a space available basis. All students are evaluated on a case by case basis. Our maximum capacity is 20 students per entering second year class, based on the efficiency of instruction, the number of off-campus clinical sites and the number of clinical opportunities in intercollegiate athletics at UT.
