Im a transfer student. Why will it take three years to complete the program?
The program uses a competitive admission process. During the first year, pre-professional courses are completed along with the first clinical practicum. (ATH 132) At the end of the spring semester, admission into the professional phase is completed. This is a two-year requirement so that the student will complete five clinical rotations and an off-campus internship. Thus one-year for admission, and a two-year clinical component is required.
