**The Pre-Professional Rehabilitation Sciences program is NOT accredited by CAATE and does not lead to a pathway for credentialing as an athletic trainer.**

The Pre-Professional Rehabilitation Sciences program is intended to prepare students for entry into professional programs in athletic training and the related rehabilitation sciences such as Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physician Assistant, and Chiropractic.  Students will develop the knowledge, skills, and abilities to compete for entry into a variety of graduate programs in sports medicine and related disciplines.  Students interested in obtaining BOC certification eligibility requirements through our CAATE Accredited Master of Science in Athletic Training – Professional Practice program should select the B.S. in Athletic Training – Pre Professional Rehabilitation Sciences undergraduate track.
