Two year athletic training programs are growing in popularity because of several reasons. First, they offer the student hands-on experience as a freshman and sophomore. Secondly, because of the limited number of students admitted and the competitiveness of four-year athletic training curriculum programs, it gives the student a big advantage over other applicants. Third, the student can fill the hourly observation requirements for admission, which varies from 25 to 150 hours depending on the institution.
